Abstract
In the past few decades, drug-eluting stents have made significant contributions to the treatment of coronary heart disease. However, due to the delayed healing of endothelial injuries caused by antiproliferative drugs and insufficient biocompatibility of vascular stent materials, late in-stent thrombosis and restenosis remain major challenges. Surface modification of cardiovascular materials to construct a biological functional layer that can regulate the behavior of blood and vascular cells is an effective way to improve the clinical performance of vascular stents. This paper reviewed the common methods of surface bio-functional modification of cardiovascular materials and especially proposed that take advantage of the new concept of precision medicine, as well as the precise and orderly regulation properties of cardiovascular disease-related gene fragments on vascular biological response behavior, the construction of gene-eluting stents which can in-situ regulate vascular intimal repair at the molecular and genetic level will become an important research direction in the future.

Advances of natural products, bio-actives and novel drug delivery system against emerging viral infections
Due to the increasing prevalence of viral infections and the ability of these human pathogens to develop resistance to current treatment strategies, there is a great need to find and develop new compounds to combat them. These molecules must have low toxicity, specific activity and high bioavailability. The most suitable ...read more
Electrospun Fibers as Drug Delivery Systems
In recent years, electrospun fibers have attracted considerable attention as potential platforms for drug delivery due to their distinctive properties and adaptability. These fibers feature a notable surface area-to-volume ratio and can be intentionally designed with high porosity, facilitating an increased capacity for drug loading and rendering them suitable for ...read more
Emerging Nanotherapeutics for Mitigation of Neurodegenerative Disorders
Conditions affecting the central nervous system (CNS) present a significant hurdle due to limited access of both treatments and diagnostic tools for the brain. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) acts as a barrier, restricting the passage of molecules from the bloodstream into the brain. The most formidable challenge facing scientists is ...read more
Nanotechnology Based Chemotherapy for the treatment of Head & Neck Cancer
The escalating recurrence rates observed in Head and Neck cancer, particularly within the chemo-therapeutically treated cohort (50-60%), can be attributed to the non-selective nature of current anticancer drug delivery modalities. In this context, nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems emerge as a promising avenue for achieving precise localization of therapeutic agents to ...read more
