Chapter 1 - Introduction -- Chapter 2 - Current Anti-angiogenic Therapies and their Limitations -- Chapter 3 - Nanomedicine -- Chapter 4 - Organic Nanoparticles in Anti-angiogenic Cancer Therapy -- Chapter 5 - Inorganic Nanoparticles in Anti-angiogenic Cancer Therapy -- Chapter 6 - Potential Challenges in Anti-angiogenic Nanotherapies -- Chapter 7 - Conclusion.
This book highlights recent developments of organic and inorganic nanomedicine that play a major role in anti-angiogenic cancer therapy. In addition, the authors present examples of nanomedicine based anti-angiogenic agents and their applications in cancer therapy. Angiogenesis is a pathophysiological phenomenon that modulates cell proliferation and cell migration and plays important roles in cancer. Anti-angiogenic nanotherapies have gained immense attention in recent times as alternative cost-effective therapies that opened a new dimension in cancer theranostics. Further the challenges of the anti-angiogenic nanotherapies and possible future perspective are detailed.
