Internship Report and Monograph "NSAIDS-loaded nanocarriers for next generation cancer treatment"

Abstract

No meio da utilização de uma variedade de estratégias de tratamento do cancro no contexto clínico (por exemplo, cirurgia, quimioterapia, irradiação e imunoterapia), a mortalidade relacionada com o cancro continua a ser uma das principais causas de morte a nível mundial, sendo responsável por 10 milhões de mortes humanas em 2020. Embora uma vez que o cancro é considerado uma doença genética intrínseca das células, a maioria das abordagens de tratamento visam a morte directa de células tumorais, sendo a multirresistência das células cancerígenas uma das principais razões da baixa eficácia da terapia do cancro. Os medicamentos anti-inflamatórios não-esteróides (AINEs) são frequentemente prescritos por médicos para o tratamento sintomático da dor e febre em numerosas situações clínicas. Numerosos estudos centraram a sua atenção nos benefícios anticancerígenos destes medicamentos devido às propriedades anti-inflamatórias que possuem. Este é um resultado direto de a carcinogénese ter estado ligada à inflamação crónica durante muito tempo. Consequentemente, assume-se que os anti-inflamatórios desempenham um papel tanto no tratamento como na prevenção do cancro. Quando se trata de tratar o cancro, os AINS têm vários inconvenientes, incluindo a toxicidade e os efeitos adversos. A utilização da nanotecnologia tornou possível tratar o cancro de uma forma simultaneamente segura e eficaz. O encapsulamento dos AINS pode ser uma forma eficaz de melhorar a eficácia dos medicamentos na terapia do cancro. Há vários dados que mostram o efeito anticancerígeno das nanomedicinas AINEs. Esta revisão destaca a relação entre cancro e inflamação, o papel destes fármacos e o conceito de encapsular os AINEs.

Amidst the use of a variety of cancer treatment strategies in the clinical setting (e.g., surgery, chemotherapy, irradiation, and immunotherapy), cancer-related mortality remains one of the main causes of death worldwide, accounting for 10 million human deaths in 2020. Though since cancer is considered a cell-intrinsic genetic disease, most treatment approaches are aimed at directly killing tumour cells, with multidrug resistance of cancer cells being a major reason for cancer therapy's low efficacy. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) are frequently prescribed by physicians for the symptomatic treatment of pain and fever in numerous clinical situations. Numerous studies have focused their attention on the anticancer benefits of these drugs due to the anti-inflammatory properties that they possess. This is a direct result of carcinogenesis having been linked to chronic inflammation for a long time. Consequently, anti-inflammatory drugs are assumed to play a role in both the treatment and prevention of cancer. When it comes to treating cancer, NSAIDs have several drawbacks, including toxicity and adverse effects. The use of nanotechnology has made it possible to treat cancer in a way that is both safe and effective. Encapsulation of NSAIDs can be an effective way of improving drug efficacy in cancer therapy. There are several data showing the anticancer effect of NSAIDs nanomedicines. This review highlight relationship between cancer and inflammation, the role in cancer and the concept of encapsulating NSAIDs.
