Drug delivery is a fascinating research field with several development opportunities. Great attention is now focused on colloidal systems, nanoparticles, and nanogels and on the possibility of modifying them in order to obtain precise targeted drug delivery systems. The aim of this review is to give an overview of the main available surface functionalization and coating strategies that can be adopted in order to modify the selectivity of the nanoparticles in the delivery process and obtain a final system with great targeted drug delivery ability. We also highlight the most important fields of application of these kinds of delivery systems and we propose a comparison between the advantages and disadvantages of the described functionalization strategies.

Background: The currently available anti breast cancer agents as well as conventional drug delivery methods have some limitations. Objective: In view of these limitations, researchers used phytochemicals/herbal extracts as anti-breast cancer agents together with the polymeric nanoparticles to provide an effective way of targeted drug delivery with lesser /no side effects. Methods: The literature for this review was searched during the year 2014 to 2018 by using the keywords, ‘ ‘breast cancer’, ‘breast cancer and its current treatments’, ‘plants against the breast cancer’, ‘polymeric nanoparticles’, ‘herbal based polymeric nanoparticles’. The databases i.e. PubMed, Science Direct and Google Scholar were used for collecting the information. Results: In the present review, we try to summarize the potential of herbal based nanoformulation as specific and high efficacy therapeutic strategy in order to pave a way for the future research involving screening and use of herbal nanoparticles for the treatment of breast cancer. Conclusion: The encapsulation of the herbal extract in the polymeric nanoparticles is the prominent, effective and emerging way of targeted drug delivery for cancer. It may serve as safer way of targeted drug delivery and may be the answer of the complications related to the currently available anti-breast cancer agents as well as limitations of conventional method of drug delivery.
