Scientists use lipid nanoparticles to precisely target gene editing to the liver
The genome editing technology CRISPR has emerged as a powerful new tool that can change the way we treat disease. The challenge when altering the genetics of our cells, however, is how to do it safely, effectively, and specifically targeted to the gene, tissue and organ that needs treatment. Scientists at...
Researchers watch anti-cancer drug release from DNA nanostructures in real time
DNA nanotechnology—the research field using DNA molecules as building material—has developed rapidly during recent years and enabled the construction of increasingly complex nanostructures. DNA nanostructures, such as DNA origami, serve as an excellent foundation for nanocarrier-based drug delivery applications, and examples of their use in medical treatments have already been demonstrated....
