Manganese oxide nanoparticles (Mn 3 O 4 NPs) were synthesized and modified with an LHRH-targeting peptide or anti-melanoma antibodies (cancer-targeting moieties), as well as an MMP2 cleavable peptide ...

In an advance that could lead to better treatment of troublesome fungal infections, researchers have developed a nanoscale drug delivery system specially targeted to fungal cells. In a new study, the ...

Announcing a new article publication for BIO Integration journal. Infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm significantly endanger human health worldwide. Biofilms are closely associated ...

Plant-derived nanoparticles have demonstrated significant anticancer effects. Researchers recently developed rice bran-derived nanoparticles (rbNPs) that efficiently suppressed cell proliferation and ...

Cancers can be treated with a range of different treatment strategies, including radiation therapy, cytoreductive surgery, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Each has varying success from patient to ...

Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most challenging tumors to treat, partly because it is often discovered at advanced stages when the disease has already spread, or metastasized. About half of ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Cancer remains one of the most challenging diseases to treat, despite decades of research. While targeted therapies like epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors have ...

Detecting cancer in the earliest stages could dramatically reduce cancer deaths because cancers are usually easier to treat when caught early. To help achieve that goal, MIT and Microsoft researchers ...

Researchers have created a nanotherapy that selectively targets and shuts down the immune cells responsible for causing an allergic response in mice, preventing anaphylaxis. Able to be tailored to ...

Researchers at a Canadian university are using nanotechnology and a tiny remote-controlled magnetic sphere to deliver cancer-fighting drugs directly to where they need to go. A scientific team at the ...
