oxide, are versatile platforms for biomedical applications and therapeutic intervention. There is an urgent need to develop new classes of anticancer agents, and recent studies demonstrate that ZnO nanomaterials hold considerable promise. </p> <p> <strong class="sub-title"> Areas covered in this review: </strong> This review analyzes the biomedical applications of metal oxide and ZnO nanomaterials under development at the experimental, preclinical and clinical levels. A discussion regarding the advantages, approaches and limitations surrounding the use of metal oxide nanoparticles for cancer applications and drug delivery is presented. The scope of this article is focused on ZnO, and other metal oxide nanomaterial systems, and their proposed mechanisms of cytotoxic action, as well as current approaches to improve their targeting and cytotoxicity against cancer cells. </p> <p> <strong class="sub-title"> What the reader will gain: </strong> This review aims to give an overview of ZnO nanomaterials in biomedical applications. </p> <p> <strong class="sub-title"> Take home message: </strong> Through a better understanding of the mechanisms of action and cellular consequences resulting from nanoparticles interactions with cells, the inherent toxicity and selectivity of ZnO nanoparticles against cancer may be improved further to make them attractive new anticancer agents. </p> </div> </div> <p class="disclaimer" id="disclaimer"> <a href="/disclaimer/" target="_blank" ga_category="literature_resources" ga_action="disclaimer_link" ga_label="under_abstract">PubMed Disclaimer</a> </p> <div class="similar-articles" id="similar"> <h2 class="title"> Similar articles </h2> <ul class="articles-list" id="similar-articles-list"> <li class="full-docsum"> <div class="docsum-content" style="display:inline;"> <a class="docsum-title" href="/24206130/" ref="article_id=24206130&linksrc=similar_articles_link&ordinalpos=1" data-ga-category="similar_article" data-ga-action="24206130" data-ga-label=""> Biomedical applications of zinc oxide nanomaterials. </a> <div class="docsum-citation full-citation"> <span class="docsum-authors full-authors">Zhang Y, Nayak TR, Hong H, Cai W.</span> <span class="docsum-authors short-authors">Zhang Y, et al.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation full-journal-citation">Curr Mol Med. 2013 Dec;13(10):1633-45. doi: 10.2174/1566524013666131111130058.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation short-journal-citation">Curr Mol Med. 2013.</span> <span class="citation-part">PMID: <span class="docsum-pmid">24206130</span></span> <span class="free-resources spaced-citation-item citation-part">Free PMC article.</span> <span class="publication-type spaced-citation-item citation-part">Review.</span> </div> </div> </li> <li class="full-docsum"> <div class="docsum-content" style="display:inline;"> <a class="docsum-title" href="/30948047/" ref="article_id=30948047&linksrc=similar_articles_link&ordinalpos=2" data-ga-category="similar_article" data-ga-action="30948047" data-ga-label=""> Targeted delivery of quercetin via pH-responsive zinc oxide nanoparticles for breast cancer therapy. </a> <div class="docsum-citation full-citation"> <span class="docsum-authors full-authors">Sadhukhan P, Kundu M, Chatterjee S, Ghosh N, Manna P, Das J, Sil PC.</span> <span class="docsum-authors short-authors">Sadhukhan P, et al.</span> <span class="docsum-journal-citation full-journal-citation">Mater Sci Eng C Mater Biol Appl. 2019 Jul;100:129-140. doi: 10.1016/j.msec.2019.02.096.
