Phytochemicals from medicinal plants offer significant therapeutic benefits, yet their clinical utility is often limited by poor solubility, instability, and low bioavailability. Nanotechnology presents a transformative approach to overcome these challenges by encapsulating phytochemicals in nanocarriers that enhance stability, targeted delivery, and controlled release. This review highlights major classes of phytochemicals such as polyphenols, flavonoids, and alkaloids and explores various nanocarrier systems including liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, and hybrid platforms. It also discusses their mechanisms of action, improved pharmacokinetics, and disease-specific targeting. Further, the review examines clinical advancements, regulatory considerations, and emerging innovations such as smart nanocarriers, AI-driven formulation, and sustainable manufacturing. Nano-phytomedicine offers a promising path toward safer, more effective, and personalized therapies, bridging traditional herbal knowledge with modern biomedical technology.
药用植物中的植物化学物质具有显著的治疗益处,但其临床应用常常受到溶解度差、稳定性低和生物利用度低的限制。纳米技术提供了一种变革性方法,通过将植物化学物质封装在纳米载体中来克服这些挑战,这些纳米载体可增强稳定性、靶向递送和控释。本综述重点介绍了多酚、黄酮类化合物和生物碱等主要类别的植物化学物质,并探讨了包括脂质体、聚合物纳米颗粒和混合平台在内的各种纳米载体系统。还讨论了它们的作用机制、改善的药代动力学以及疾病特异性靶向。此外,本综述还研究了临床进展、监管考量以及智能纳米载体、人工智能驱动的制剂和可持续制造等新兴创新。纳米植物医学为实现更安全、更有效和个性化的治疗提供了一条充满希望的途径,将传统草药知识与现代生物医学技术联系起来。
