The fusion of nanotechnology with gene editing promises a revolutionary strategy in combating cancer, providing the possibility of precise and focused treatments. This review examines the synergistic integration of these two potent technologies, specifically emphasising their combined effectiveness in oncological therapies. Nanotechnology offers a flexible framework for administering gene-editing tools, improving their accuracy, and reducing unintended side effects, all of which are significant obstacles in existing cancer treatments. Nanoparticles can improve the effectiveness of therapies, lower the risk of systemic toxicity, and allow the simultaneous manipulation of many genetic pathways involved in cancer growth by delivering CRISPR-Cas9 and other gene-editing systems directly to tumour sites. We conduct a thorough analysis of recent progress in this burgeoning field, emphasising significant advancements in the design of nanoparticles and gene-editing techniques that propel the development of next-generation cancer medicines. In addition, we address the present obstacles and constraints, such as the effectiveness of delivery, apprehensions over safety, and regulatory obstacles, while suggesting potential areas of future research to surmount these barriers. This study thoroughly examines the promise of nano-precision gene editing as a transformative approach to cancer treatment by incorporating findings from recent clinical trials and case studies. By highlighting recent clinical advancements and emerging innovations, this review underscores the potential of nano-precision gene editing as a groundbreaking approach in next-generation cancer therapy.
纳米技术与基因编辑的融合有望成为对抗癌症的革命性策略,为精准靶向治疗提供可能。本综述探讨了这两种强大技术的协同整合,特别强调了它们在肿瘤治疗中的联合有效性。纳米技术为基因编辑工具的应用提供了一个灵活的框架,提高了其准确性,并减少了意外的副作用,而这些都是现有癌症治疗中的重大障碍。纳米颗粒可以提高治疗效果,降低全身毒性风险,并通过将CRISPR-Cas9和其他基因编辑系统直接递送至肿瘤部位,实现对多个参与癌症生长的基因通路的同时调控。我们对这一新兴领域的最新进展进行了全面分析,重点介绍了纳米颗粒设计和基因编辑技术方面的重大进步,这些进步推动了下一代癌症药物的发展。此外,我们还讨论了当前的障碍和限制,如递送效率、安全性担忧和监管障碍,同时提出了未来研究的潜在领域以克服这些障碍。本研究通过纳入近期临床试验和案例研究的结果,全面审视了纳米精准基因编辑作为一种变革性癌症治疗方法的前景。通过突出近期的临床进展和新兴创新,本综述强调了纳米精准基因编辑作为下一代癌症治疗中开创性方法的潜力。
