Nanoparticles-in-nanofibers composites comprise an attractive approach for controlling release and delivery of many active molecules for versatile biomedical applications. Incorporation of drug-loaded nanoparticles within these composites can afford the encapsulation of one or more drug with sequential drug release, which can be tuned according to the assigned function. Moreover, existence of nanoparticles within the nanofibrous matrix was found to favor the morphological and mechanical properties of the developed composites. In this review, the latest biomedical advances for nanoparticles-in-nanofibers composites will be highlighted including; tissue regeneration, antimicrobial applications, wound healing, cancer management, cardiovascular disorders, ophthalmic applications, vaginal drug delivery, biosensors and biomedical filters. These composites incorporating multiple types of nanoparticles could be very promising drug delivery platforms.

Impaired inflammation and vascularization are common reasons for delayed diabetic wound healing. Nanoparticles (NPs)-in-nanofibers composites can manage diabetic wounds. A multifunctional scaffold was developed based on tadalafil (TDF)-loaded NPs incorporated into polyvinyl alcohol/ extract nanofibers.

Nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems have been designed into various structures that can effectively prevent cancer progression and improve the therapeutic cancer index. However, most of these delivery systems are designed to be simple nanostructures with several limitations, including low stability and burst drug release features. A nano-in-nano delivery technique is explored to address the aforementioned concerns.
