Currently, lung cancer is the subject of major concern owing to the very high mortality rate throughout the world. Most of the conventional treatment methods such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc., fail to prolong life of the patients. Incidents of recurrence are also very common in case of lung cancer. Researchers have shown that nanoparticles may act as a powerful anti cancer tool, especially for lung cancer. Unique surface properties and easy surface functionalization of nanoparticles enable early detection, diagnosis, imaging and treatment of lung cancer. The authors have elaborately presented how various nanoparticles (natural, semi synthetic and synthetic) may help in the treatment of lung cancer. They have also detailed works of various scientists who succeeded in developing effective nanoparticles and enabled very specific lung cancer therapy without any undesirable side effects and minimized death. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Molecular Science,$x2191-5407 606 $aNanochemistry 606 $aCancer$xResearch 606 $aPharmaceutical chemistry 606 $aNanochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C33000 606 $aCancer Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001 606 $aMedicinal Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C28000 615 0$aNanochemistry. 615 0$aCancer$xResearch. 615 0$aPharmaceutical chemistry. 615 14$aNanochemistry. 615 24$aCancer Research. 615 24$aMedicinal Chemistry. 676 $a616.99406 700 $aBandyopadhyay$b Abhijit$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0767859 702 $aDas$b Tamalika$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aYeasmin$b Sabina$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298622403321 996 $aNanoparticles in Lung Cancer Therapy - Recent Trends$92060868 997 $aUNINA
