Myocardial infarction (MI), is a leading cause of global mortality, marked by cardiomyocyte death. This takes place as a result of ischemic injury, the detrimental impacts of oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses. Conventiona pharmacological interventions, are unfortunately limited by a relatively low targeting efficiency and the inability to reverse the fate of cardiomyocyte death. Recent advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of multifunctional nanoparticles, offering innovative solutions to effectively address these complex challenges. These nanoscale platforms have the remarkable capability to enable targeted drug delivery, precisely regulate the microenvironment, and facilitate real-time monitoring of the cardiac repair processes. This development represents a substantial paradigm shift in the treatment of MI. This review integrates the crucial findings obtained from the recent studies focusing on nanoparticle-based strategies for multifunctional cardiac repair after MI, aiming to explore the potential of nanoparticles in the treatment of MI.
