Abstract

Cancer has become a very serious challenge with aging of the human population. Advances in nanotechnology have provided new perspectives in the treatment of cancer. Through the combination of nanotechnology and therapeutics, nanomedicine has been successfully used to treat cancer in recent years. In terms of nanomedicine, nanocarriers play a key role in delivering therapeutic agents, reducing severe side effects, simplifying the administration scheme, and improving therapeutic efficacies. Modulations of the structure and function of nanocarriers for improved therapeutic efficacy in cancer have attracted increasing attention in recent years. Stimuli-responsive nanocarriers penetrate deeply into tissues and respond to external or internal stimuli by releasing the therapeutic agent for cancer therapy. Notably, stimuli-responsive nanocarriers reduce the severe side effects of therapeutic agents, when compared with systemic chemotherapy, and achieve controlled drug release at tumor sites. Therefore, the development of stimuli-responsive nanocarriers plays a crucial role in drug delivery for cancer therapy. This article focuses on the development of nanomaterials with stimuli-responsive properties for use as nanocarriers, in the last few decades. These nanocarriers are more effective at delivering the therapeutic agent under the control of external or internal stimuli. Furthermore, nanocarriers with theranostic features have been designed and fabricated to confirm their great potential in achieving effective treatment of cancer, which will provide us with better choices for cancer therapy.
