A collaboration between nano- and neuroscientists has resulted in a system that kills the most aggressive, and most common, form of adult brain cancer.
Results for "cancer"
Cancer all-clear for nonlinear optical imaging
Dutch researchers have estimated the risk of squamous cell cancer induction in skin following nonlinear optical imaging.
RNA-loaded red blood cells to vaccinate against cancer
Nair and colleagues demonstrate that a tumor vaccine can be formulated by loading RNA into whole blood cells directly after blood draw.
New strategy for individualized cancer treatment
Dr. Xian-Zheng Zhang and co-workers have fabricated a biodegradable chimeric peptide for cancer therapy and real-time apoptosis imaging.

Korean scientists have developed a tumor-targeted, bioreducible nanoparticle system that can deliver cytotoxic anticancer drugs to tumor tissues.
Anti-cancer system bursts nanoballoons with lasers
New drug delivery method targets cancer cells – not the entire body – and limits chemotherapy side effects.
New nanoparticles can deliver multiple anti-cancer drugs
Nanoparticles can carry two different anti-cancer drugs and deliver them to separate parts of the cancer cell where they will be most effective.
Nanoparticles that slip through the vaginal mucus barrier to fight cervical cancer
Researchers develop polymer-based mucus-penetrating particles (MPP) loaded with paclitaxel, a frontline chemo drug.
