摘要: Based on their physicochemical properties that allow efficient functionalization with biomolecules and cellular membrane translocation, as well applications in Raman near-infrared fluorescence imaging, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been proposed viable candidates for developing therapeutic platforms ensure targeting of tumor cells without affecting healthy cells. This article reviews the research toxicological effects CNTs host cells, pharmacological profiles cancer The potential impact this approach is discussed along some pitfalls will need to be overcome when implementation are considered.
