“…Nanotechnology provides a new dimension to the targeted drug-delivery approach, with multiple benefits in COPD. However, nanomaterials for transporting therapeutics need to be assessed for the potential health hazards, especially since different nanoparticles have been demonstrated to induce toxicity related to their nanometre size, opening a the new field of nanotoxicology [ 149 ]. Nanoparticles also generate and contribute to oxidative stress via direct and indirect cellular interactions.…”

“…Encouraged intersection of the coating liquids and endocytosis of NDS will enhance transfection efficiencies. Especially essential target cells are epithelial cells, neutrophils (e.g., in COPD), and eosinophils (e.g., in asthma) [108]. By targeting NPs other than the oral route, the rate of excretion will be decreased through bypass first metabolism.…”

“…However, nanomaterials for therapeutic delivery must be investigated for possible health risks, particularly as distinct NPs are reported to induce toxicity in proportion to their nanometer size, spawning a new area called nanotoxicology. 65 Through direct and indirect biological interactions, NPs also contribute to oxidative stress. The interaction of nanoparticles with interior cellular components can cause oxidation, which worsens the severity of oxidative stress.…”
