Cardiomyopathy and fibrosis are the main causes of heart failure in diabetes patients. For therapeutic purposes, a delivery system is required to enhance antidiabetic drug efficacy and specifically target profibrotic pathways in cardiomyocytes. Nanoparticles (NPs) have distinct advantages, including biocompatibility, bioavailability, targeting efficiency, and minimal toxicity, which make them ideal for antidiabetic treatment. In this review, we overview the latest information on the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy and fibrosis in diabetes patients. We summarize how NP applications improve insulin and liraglutide efficacy and their sustained release upon oral administration. We provide a comprehensive review of the results of NP clinical trials in diabetes patients and of animal studies investigating the effects of NP-mediated anti-fibrotic treatments. Collectively, the application of advanced NP delivery systems in the treatment of cardiomyopathy and fibrosis in diabetes patients is a promising and innovative therapeutic strategy.
