The encapsulation of the gemcitabine anticancer drug into grapheme nest: a theoretical study.

The efficient transport of a drug molecule until its target cell constitutes a significant challenge for delivery processes. To achieve such objectives, solid nanocapsules that protect the immune system during the transport should be developed and controlled at the nanoscale level. From this point of view, nanostructures based on graphene sheets could present some promising properties due to their ultimate size and dimension.
