A systematic review on hyaluronic acid coated nanoparticles: recent strategy in breast cancer management.

Hyaluronic acid, a non-sulphated glycosaminoglycan has attracted its usage in the management of breast cancer. Drug-loaded nanoparticles with hyaluronic acid surface modifications show potential as a promising method for targeting and delivering drugs to the tumor site. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review of articles and assess the impact of hyaluronic acid coated nanoparticles on breast cancer. The various database were used for this comprehensive review. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected according to the PRISMA guidelines. Studies associated with characterization, , and studies were collected and subjected for further analysis. According to the inclusion criteria, 41 literature were selected for analysis. From all the studies, it was observed that the nanoparticles coated with hyaluronic acid produced better particle size, shape, zeta potential, increased cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, cell apoptosis, and anti-tumor effect . Research has shown that hyaluronic acid exhibits a higher affinity for CD44 receptors, resulting in enhanced targeted nanoparticle activity on cancer cells while sparing normal cells.
