China-US team creates plant-based nanoparticles to fight deadliest brain cancer | These nanoparticles are designed to penetrate the blood-brain barrier and target tumor cells directly.
Scientists at Wuhan’s Renmin Hospital and Yale University injected the nanoparticles into mice and observed that the particles successfully identified and attacked tumor cells.
Scientists at Wuhan’s Renmin Hospital and Yale University injected the nanoparticles into mice and observed that the particles successfully identified and attacked tumor cells. The South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported that the team derived phytochemicals from medicinal plants “that were able to self-assemble into nanoparticles to treat various diseases.” “The resulting p28-LBM nanoparticles demonstrate remarkable capability in penetrating brain tumors and exhibit high efficacy in inhibiting glioblastoma growth,” it added.
