Light-Induced Gene Therapy Using Nanoparticles Destroys Cancer Cells

Описание: Researchers at Ohio State University combine targeted gene therapy, light, and nanoparticles 🫧 to treat cancer. This innovative treatment uses AAV viral vectors to target the cancer cells’ mitochondria, known as the powerhouses of the cells. This treatment triggers damage in cancer cells and kills them, leaving healthy cells unharmed. Positive results were shown in mice.
