据生物360报道,在迄今为止首批应用纳米技术进行靶向癌症治疗研究的其中一项工作中,研究人员创制了一种抗癌药物的纳米颗粒配方,它既有效又无毒,这是游离药物很难获得的性质。他们创制的纳米颗粒直接向肿瘤释放出强效且针对毒性的靶向抗癌药物,但同时该药物却不会伤害健康的组织。在长有人类肿瘤的啮齿动物中的这些发现为该药物的纳米颗粒包封版本的临床试验搭建了舞台。 According to Bio 360, in one of the first studies to date on the use of nanotechnology to target cancer treatments, the researchers created a nanoparticle formulation of an anti-cancer drug that is both effective and non-toxic, The nature of the drug is hard to come by. The nanoparticles they created deliver powerful and toxic targeted anti-cancer drugs directly to the tumor, but at the same time the drug does not harm healthy tissue. These findings in rodents with human tumors have set the stage for clinical trials of nanoparticulate encapsulated versions of the drug.
