Researchers develop molecular assembly method for cancer therapy and diagnostics

(Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology) Cancer is a complex disease to treat, and yet the operating principle of many current treatments is to simply kill healthy cells a little slower than cancerous ones. In response, an international team of researchers from Russia and Australia has developed a sophisticated nanoparticle-based treatment.They created a universal assembly method, which allows a number of molecules with therapeutic and diagnostic potential to be easily combined while preserving their spatial structure and properties.
