Involvement of gold and silver nanoparticles in lung cancer nanomedicines: A review

The use of nanoparticles in cancer therapies has spawned a new field of study known as cancer nanomedicines. Gold and silver nanoparticles are advantageous in both diagnostic and therapies. It’s an astonishment to see the benefits and application of metal nanoparticles over traditional therapy. Its medications are more effective. Physical, chemical, and biological processes are used to make gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). To destroy cancer cells, NPs grab incoming photons and change these into heat. AgNPs are primarily employed for antibacterial and anticancer therapy. In this article, we conclude with the uses of these nanoparticles as anti-cancer agents and the various methods through which they destroy cancer cells. Nanoparticle-based medicines are leading the way in primary and metastatic lung cancer diagnosis, imaging, screening, and therapies. This study covers recent accomplishments and obstacles in nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems with a focus on lung cancer therapy.
