Recent advances in nanotechnology and material science have re-ignited interest in drug delivery research. Arguably, however, hardly any of the systems developed and strategies proposed are really relevant for shaping the future (clinical) face of the nanomedicine field. Consequently, as outlined in this commentary, instead of making ever more carrier materials, and making nanomedicine both science-fiction and fiction-science, we should try to come up with rational and realistic concepts to make nanomedicines work, in particular in patients.
近年来,纳米技术和材料科学的进展重新点燃了人们对药物输送研究的兴趣。然而,可以说,几乎没有任何已开发的系统和提出的策略与塑造纳米医学领域的未来(临床)面貌真正相关。因此,正如本评论所述,我们不应一味地制造更多的载体材料,使纳米医学既成为科幻又成为科幻科学,而应尝试提出合理和现实的概念,使纳米药物发挥作用,特别是在患者中。
