There is no effective treatment for this disease since drugs are usually toxic with low bioavailability. Serious efforts to achieve disease control and eventual eradication have been unsuccessful to date, emphasizing the need for rapid diagnosis, drug development, and a reliable vaccine. Novel systems for drug and vaccine administration based on nanocarriers represent a promising avenue for Chagas disease treatment. Nanoparticulate systems can reduce toxicity, and increase the efficacy and bioavailability of active compounds by prolonging release, and therefore improve the therapeutic index. Moreover, nanoparticles are able to interact with the host’s immune system, modulating the immune response to favour the elimination of pathogenic microorganisms. In addition, new advances in diagnostic assays, such as nanobiosensors, are beneficial in that they enable precise identification of the pathogen. In this review, we provide an overview of the strategies and nanocarrier-based delivery systems for antichagasic agents, such as liposomes, micelles, nanoemulsions, polymeric and non-polymeric nanoparticles. We address recent progress, with a particular focus on the advances of nanovaccines and nanodiagnostics, exploring new perspectives on Chagas disease treatment.Keywords: delivery systems, nanobiosensors, nanodiagnostics, nanoparticle systems, nanovaccineQuijia Quezada CAzevedo CSCharneau SSantana JMChorilli MCarneiro MBBastos IMDDove Medical PressarticleDelivery systemsnanobiosensorsnanodiagnosticsnanoparticle systemsnanovaccine.Medicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 6407-6424 (2019)
