Abstract
Cancer cells reprogram metabolism to meet demands for energy, biosynthetic precursors, and redox balance. Given the centrality of metabolic pathways to tumor growth and transformation, targeting metabolism offers promising, more specific cancer treatments with reduced side effects. Nanomaterials that exploit metabolic vulnerabilities are emerging as powerful therapeutic options. This review summarizes cutting‑edge nanomaterial strategies that target multiple cancer metabolic pathways, contrasts nanoparticle (NP)-based therapies with conventional treatments, and discusses current challenges and future prospects.
