Exploring the use of nanoparticle drug delivery systems allowing for innovative therapeutic approaches, this timely volume provides an overview of possible therapeutic applications. The first part of the book highlights general properties of and phenomena observed with nanoparticles and the subsequent consequences for applications in drug delivery. The second part focuses on the therapeutic approaches that are possible through the use of nanoparticles, with each chapter discussing a specific disease—diabetes, cancer, inflammation—and the relevant therapeutic approaches based on the design of nanoparticulate drug delivery systems. Written in a concise manner, the guide offers insight into the basics of nanoparticle preparation as well as a more detailed account of what is therapeutically feasible by using nanoparticle approaches.
