Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Based on the success of Volume I of the Special Issue "Development of Novel Tumor-Targeting Nanoparticles" https://www.mdpi.com/journal/pharmaceutics/special_issues/nanoparticles_tumor, we are now launching Volume II. Below is the instruction for it.
Despite the current coronavirus epidemic, cancer remains one of the most pressing problems of humankind, killing about 10 million people in 2020, according to statistics from the World Health Organization. As long as there are cancers that are fatal despite the use of the most modern treatments, there is a need to develop new drugs. Based on numerous published reports, nanoparticles (including liposomes, micelles, etc.) are capable of delivering much larger volumes of active components that stay sequestered in tumor cells for the time required for treatment, and with sufficient active targeting, nanoparticles would have enormous therapeutic potential. Therefore, innovating new tumor-targeting nanoparticles that can change the history of cancer treatment and save the lives of millions of people should be a priority. Therefore, we invite researchers participate in such groundbreaking work to participate in a Special Issue of the journal by submitting their articles for publication in Pharmaceutics.
