Synthetic HDL Therapy Innovation
Posted on 2009-08-19 23:36:24 in Cardio-Vascular | Drug Trends | Longevity and Age Management | Nanotechnology |
Synthetic-HDL-nanoparticles may be able to carry cholesterol through the bloodstream and onto the liver for excretion. Such an innovation in drug treatment of cardiovascular disease could be used to prevent stroke and heart attack within the next decade. Continue reading…
New chemical nose method for detecting cancer earlier developed at UMASS
Posted on 2009-06-26 15:09:23 in Cancer | Diagnostics | Longevity and Age Management | Nanotechnology |
Researchers from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, have developed an entirely new, more effective way to recognize cancer cells. Their “chemical nose” can differentiate between healthy and cancerous cells, as well as between metastatic and non-metastatic cancer cells. Continue reading…

New research suggests that nanotechnology may offer scientists with a novel way of treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Continue reading…
UC San Diego researchers target tumors with tiny 'nanoworms'
Posted on 2008-09-08 12:18:58 in Cancer | Nanotechnology |
Scientists at UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara and MIT have developed nanometer-sized “nanoworms” that can cruise through the bloodstream without significant interference from the body's immune defense system and—like tiny anti-cancer missiles—home in on tumors. Their discovery, detailed in this week's issue of the journal Advanced Materials, is reminiscent of the 1966 science fiction movie, the Fantastic Voyage, in which a submarine is shrunken to microscopic dimensions, then injected into the bloodstream to remove a blood clot from a diplomat's brain.

'Smart Bomb' Nanoparticle Strategy Impacts Metastasis
Posted on 2008-07-14 15:03:15 in Biotechnology | Nanotechnology |
A new treatment strategy using molecular "smart bombs" to target metastasis with anti-cancer drugs leads to good results using significantly lower doses of toxic chemotherapy, with less collateral damage to surrounding tissue, according to a collaborative team of researchers at the University of California, San Diego. Continue reading…
Drug-Infused Nanoparticles Stop Cancer From Spreading
Posted on 2008-07-14 14:54:59 in Cancer | Longevity and Age Management | Nanotechnology |
By using tumor-targeting nanoparticles filled with chemotherapy drugs, scientists kept kidney and pancreas cancers from spreading through the bodies of mice. Continue reading…
