Abstract
Inflammation stands as a pivotal component in various pathological conditions, necessitating effective therapeutic interventions. This review explores the emerging landscape of anti-inflammatory strategies employing polymeric nano formulations enriched with phenolic compounds. Beginning with an elucidation of inflammation's impact and the significance of anti-inflammatory agents, the paper highlights the potent anti-inflammatory properties of phenolic compounds. It delves into the pivotal role of polymeric nanostructures in drug delivery, emphasizing their ability to enhance the stability and bioavailability of phenolic compounds. Advances in polymeric nanoformulations, characterization techniques, and evaluation methods for anti-inflammatory efficacy are comprehensively discussed. Furthermore, the review provides an in-depth analysis of various phenolic compounds within nanoformulations, showcasing their mechanisms of action in anti-inflammatory pathways. The abstract concludes by outlining the potential applications of these nanoformulations in disease-specific contexts, discussing challenges, and offering insights into future directions for research and clinical implementation.
