Breakthrough in Cancer Treatment: Self-Assembling Nanoparticles Create Hope for a Cure
New research has revealed a promising new cancer drug that self-assembles into nanoparticles. This means it can deliver its payload into the body’s cells more efficiently, reducing the risk of side effects. The team of researchers from the University of Manchester have developed a new type of ‘smart’ drug, made up of molecules that not only target cancer cells but also self-organize into nanoparticles once inside the body. This means that the drug can be more effectively absorbed by the cells, making it more effective than other treatments. The study is an exciting breakthrough in the fight against cancer and could revolutionize cancer treatment in the near future.
