The article discusses the development and clinical application of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) in disease treatment and diagnosis, with current focus on the challenges related to biodistribution and pharmacokinetics. Topics include the physicochemical properties of NPs affecting their interactions with cells, the multiple pathways of NP uptake and excretion in the body, and the importance of crossing biological barriers for effective drug delivery.
