It’s contributory role in the aetiology of coronary artery disease is arguably it’s most serious manifestation, since this is the leading cause of death in the Western world and accounts for a third of all premature deaths. Diabetic renal disease is the most common cause of renal failure requiring dialysis, and diabetic retinopathy remains the leading cause of blindness globally. Diabetic foot also leads to more amputations worldwide than any other cause. With a prevalence of 4–5% of the population, diabetes accounts for a devastating 5% of all deaths globally each year and is a massive cause of morbidity and suffering. Diabetes therefore poses a huge challenge for patients, healthcare professionals and governments alike. The burden of the disease is clearly a global phenomenon as 80% of those with diabetes live in low to middle income countries. An ageing population and an explosive increase in obesity are behind a forthcoming diabetes epidemic, since the prevalence is expected to double between 2005 and 2030. Sadly, despite various national and global initiatives, the death rate from the condition is expected to double in the next 10 years and warrants an immediate comprehensive global strategy. Although the importance of glucose control for the prevention of adverse sequelae is well established, there remain several barriers to overcome. Our understanding of diabetes and it’s manifestations in the different organ systems remains arguably rather crude. The aetiologies of the various forms of diabetes are incompletely understood and there are major limitations to current oral hypoglycaemic drug therapy and to insulin therapy which still requires injection. Furthermore, our management of the various disease processes that result from diabetes is limited mostly to blood glucose control and management of cardiovascular risk factors, and does little to address these disease processes directly. Advances in medical sciences, particularly in the realm of nano- medicine, offer great promise for complex diseases such as diabetes. Improved understanding of the aetiologies of the different forms of diabetes and the pathophysiology underlying the resultant multi-organ disease © 2012 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC vi Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine in Diabetes process that results from hyperglycaemia may defi ne new therapeutic targets for the prevention or perhaps cure of this condition, and better treatment of the multi-organ pathology that it causes. New methods of drug delivery using nano technology may help optimise diabetic control, and alternatives to injecting insulin are now on the horizon. Likewise, the possibility of directly addressing the pathological processes that complicate diabetes may allow real advances in reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with this condition. The nanosciences encompass a variety of technologies ranging from particles to networks and nanostructures. For example, nanoparticles have been proposed to be suitable carriers of therapeutic agents whilst nanostructures provide suitable platforms for sub-micro bioengineering. However, understanding the importance of nanoscience and technology is somewhat problematical as a great deal of text can be rather technical in nature with little consideration to the novice. In this book Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine in Diabetes we aim to disseminate the information in a readable way by having unique sections for the novice and expert alike. This enables the reader to transfer their knowledge base from one discipline to another or from one academic level to another. Each chapter has an abstract, “key facts”, and a “mini-dictionary” of key terms and phrases within each chapter. Finally, each chapter has a series of summary points. We cover for example, introductions to the fi eld, an overview on nanosciences, lipid matrix nanoparticles, atomic force microscopy, nanocarriers of antisense oligonucleotides, carbon nanotubes coupled to siRNA, glucose sensors, nanocomposites, zinc oxide nanorods, nanoprobes to monitor cell processes, mucoadhesive nanoparticles, insulin-nanoparticles, carbon nanomaterials for MALDI-TOF MS analysis, loaded biodegradable nanoparticles, nano-encapsulation strategies, nano- immuno science, nanolabeled diabetogenic T cells, nanoparticle-delivery in retinopathy, nanofi ber matrices as diabetic wound dressings, poly-n- acetyl glucosamine nanofi bers and nanotechnology footsocks. This book is intended to impart some of the key advances in nano- medicine in diabetes. These reviews will bring the reader to the forefront of this exciting fi eld. It is hoped that by condensing these key developments in the fi eld into this short book, that we may clarify the future direction of this rapidly evolving specialty and highlight the promise of the nano- sciences in the fi eld of diabetes. Contributors to Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine in Diabetes are all either international or national experts, leading authorities or are carrying out ground breaking and innovative work on their subject. The book is essential reading for research scientists, medical doctors, health care professionals, pathologists, biologists, biochemists, chemists and physicists, general practitioners as well as those © 2012 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC Preface vii interested in disease and nano sciences in general.
