Discusses the synthesis, the characterization and the applications of a new generation of smart nanoparticles, for nanomedicine applications. Explores the problems related to the biocompatibility of a range of nanoparticles, outlining potential solutions. Describes techniques for manipulating specific classes of nanoparticles for a variety of treatment types. Nanotechnology has enabled an unprecedented control of the interactions between materials and biological entities, from the microscale down to the molecular level. Nanosurfaces and nanostructures have been used to mimic or interact with biological microenvironments, to support specific biological functions such as cell adhesion, mobility and differentiation, as well as tissue healing. Recently, a new paradigm has been proposed for nanomedicine to exploit the intrinsic properties of nanomaterials as active devices rather than as passive structural units or carriers for medications. Here, the nanomaterial itself is the active device that responds to external stimuli by modifying its intrinsic chemical and/or physical characteristics, so as to provide useful bio-stimulation and/or bio-signaling. Smart Nanoparticles for Biomedicine explores this ‘active’ category, introducing smart nanoparticles that change their structural or functional properties in response to specific external stimuli. Particular attention is given to multifunctional nanostructured materials that are pharmacologically active and that can be actuated by virtue of their magnetic, dielectric, optically-active, redox-active, or piezoelectric properties. This is an important reference resource, that will be of great value to readers in biomaterials and biomedical research who want to learn more about how smart nanoparticles can be used to create more effective treatment solutions. Gianni Ciofani is Associate Professor at the Polytechnic University of Torino, Italy. Hi is also a Principle Investigator at the Department for Center for Micro-BioRobotics at the Italian Institute of Technology. His research is focused in the field of smart nanomaterials for nanomedicine, bio/non-biointeractions, and biology in altered gravity conditions. This is his second book for Elsevier, following the publication of Boron Nitride Nanotubes in Nanomedicine in 2016.
