Researchers have created nanoparticles that can remove disease-driving proteins while also delivering a chemotherapeutic or ...

Engineered nanoparticles built around indocyanine green, a fluorescent dye already approved for clinical use, could sharpen how surgeons see and remove tumors during operations. A study in the journal ...

Immune system cells can be engineered outside of the body in a type of therapy called CAR-T. Now, Johns Hopkins scientists are developing ways to sidestep such cell manufacturing with a biodegradable ...

Tracking targeted drug delivery is often a challenge due to limitations in current imaging techniques. A recent study by Tokyo's Waseda University reports a breakthrough imaging technique that allows ...

A mouse lying in an imaging system has a small zone that is brightly colored near its hind legs. A much bigger bright zone is present where the mouse’s brain is. Fluorescent nanoparticles used to ...

Neutron activation of gold nanoparticles enables visualization of drug distribution in mice. (Nanowerk News) Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have unique chemical and biological properties. Due to their ...
