[...] Is the future of nanomedicine in danger? I.A. History and first discoveries • 1959 the concept of Miniaturization appears • “There is plenty of room at the bottom » by Richard Feynman. • 2 challenges • term nanotechnologies appears in 1974 •1981 tunelling microscope • Fullerene •2000: nanomedicine by robert freitas I.B.Principle of functioning • principle will be transported in the organism until the target thanks to nanovectors. • structure of lipoprotein and the virus's recognition system of cells. • nanovectors can transport active principles and recognize diseased cells thanks to sensors •Tests •Tests on animals: Pre clinical •Test on human: clinical development -non-sick volunteers patients to determine side effects - one hundred sick volunteers patients to determine the efficiency -Comparaison between the treatment find with treatments which already existing II.A.General information • 230 health products • 184 drugs, and therapeutic vaccines • 18 products for the regenerative medicine • 8 products for medical imaging • 9 for diagnostic in vitro drugs regenerative medicine medical imaging diagnostic in vitro prophylactic vaccines • 11 for Prophylactic vaccines.
