pH/ Temperature/ Redox and Light-responsive Polymersome Structure and Application in Cancer Therapy: Smart Drug Delivery and Targeted Drug Release

Abstract: Improvements in cancer treatment are largely influenced by more people knowing about it and developing new ways to diagnose and treat it. New methods such as nanotheranostics and the use of tiny particles have greatly improved the diagnosis, control and treatment of cancer. They have also helped overcome problems with traditional treatments. Nanotheranostics contribute to personalized medicine by helping doctors choose the right treatment, track how well the treatment works, and plan future treatments. Polymers have many advantages as smart or durable drug formulations among small therapeutic platforms. These small sacks, which can be used for drug delivery and imaging, are not harmful to natural tissues and are becoming more popular. Scientists have found a special group of tiny particles made of polymers that can carry active ingredients. These particles show the potential of creating a useful platform for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases on a very small scale. In the past ten years, people have become more interested in polymersomes. They have been used for various medical purposes, such as controlling blood sugar, treating cancer and fighting bacteria. Polymers are stronger and more stable than liposomes. Biocompatible and biodegradable polymers are very important for faster translation and creation of useful medical formulations. Recent progress in this field includes the creation of intelligent, centralized and responsive containers. In this review, we will examine and provide information about polymersomes. We will discuss their properties and how they can be used as drug delivery systems.
