简介
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women. TNBC is a varied collection of tumours that encompasses a range of breast cancers and is defined by the absence of estrogen, progesterone receptor, and overexpression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 gene. Nanotechnology is a fast-evolving science that has a wide range of applications in human health, agriculture, and animal nutrition. It also has the potential to help bioscience research in a range of sectors. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have a high biomedical relevance among metallic nanoparticles, owing to their antibacterial properties. They have many advantages including low cost, environmentally friendly and less toxic. Hence, in this chapter the authors discussed the effect of AgNPs on TNBC and their possible mechanisms.
