Nanotubes sniff out cancer agents in living cells A multidisciplinary team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed carbon nanotubes that can be used as sensors for cancer drugs and other DNA-damaging agents inside living cells. The sensors, made of carbon nanotubes wrapped in DNA, can detect chemotherapy drugs such as cisplatin as well as environmental toxins and free radicals that damage DNA. news-medical.netBreast Cancer: The Link With Pesticides Introduction Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women throughout the world, and it exacts a tragic toll: an estimated 1.15 million women got breast cancer, and 411,000 died from it in 2002.

Some reviewers have linked this trend to synthetic chemicals, noting that the increasing incidence of breast cancer has paralleled the proliferation of synthetic chemicals since W... cancercompass.comDevelopment Of New Technique To Tap Full Potential Of Antibody Libraries Should Open Numerous Pharmaceutical Possibilities In hopes of more fully tapping the libraries' potential, a group of Scripps Research Institute scientists, led by Scripps Research President Richard A. Lerner, M.D., has for the first time developed a new screening technique that enables antibody screening against equally massive libraries of targets. This technique makes it possible to accelerate searches for new treatments against cancer and other diseases.

CBC.caOld Compound In Cancer Treatment Proves Effective In Pediatric Neuroblastoma Models The compound, α-difluoromethylornithine or DFMO, targets the activity of a specific enzyme and, even in very limited doses, is effective in protecting against the malignancy in animal models. The study was published in the January 15, 2009 issue of the journal, Cancer Research (Volume 69, Issue 2). 'The drug, which was developed as a cancer therapy and later shelved because of toxicity concerns, has been around since the 1970s,' said John Cleveland, Ph.D. Medicalnewstoday.com |
