In addition to showing a decrease in the chance of graft-versus-host disease, which develops when a transplanted blood system attacks a patient’s tissues, the study shows a slightly lower rate of relapse in these patients undergoing transplant with cord blood
Researchers have discovered what could prove a new and improved way to treat the poor-prognosis blood cancer, acute myeloid leukaemia or AML
Deleting an inhibitory gene in natural killer cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells is found to boost their anti-tumor activity and persistence; researchers now seek to develop a clinical therapy
Researchers proposed a new method for producing gold nanoparticles based on synthesis under the influence of ultraviolet radiation. The method excludes the use of aggressive chemical agents and the obtained nanoparticles are safe for the body and can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer
Hollow carbon loaded with drugs can be given a boost by bombarding them with microwaves and laser irradiation to treat tumors
By coupling a bacterial injection system with a light-controlled molecular switch, scientists are able to inject proteins into eukaryontic cells
Nanoparticles, lasers help stimulate brain, play key role in virus project
Scientists have explored the use of liposomes to deliver chemotherapy drugs to tumor cells. But drugs can sometimes leak out of liposomes before they reach their destination. Now, researchers report a way to stabilize liposomes by embedding a stiff nanobowl in their inner cavity
Customizable magnetic iron nanowires pinpoint and track the movements of target cells
