Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, necessitating continuous innovation in diagnostics and therapy. Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising frontier in cancer research, offering unique tools for early detection, targeted therapy, and monitoring of disease progression. This review explores the potential applications of green nanoparticles as molecular biomarkers in cancer diagnostics and therapy. We discuss the importance of molecular biomarkers in cancer diagnosis and prognosis, current challenges and limitations, and the potential of green nanoparticles to overcome these challenges. Specifically, we highlight the ability of green nanoparticles to enhance drug delivery to tumor sites, control the release of therapeutic agents, overcome multidrug resistance, reduce side effects, and enable combination therapy approaches. Furthermore, we address challenges and future perspectives in the field, including regulatory hurdles, scalability concerns, integration with existing protocols, and potential applications in personalized medicine, multimodal imaging, and targeting rare cancers. By leveraging the unique properties of green nanoparticles and embracing interdisciplinary collaboration, we can unlock the full potential of nanotechnology in revolutionizing cancer diagnostics and therapy, ultimately improving outcomes for patients worldwide.
