RNA Nanotechnology For Treating Cancer

Speaking of RNA at the forefront of cutting edge genomic medicine, Cary at Cancer NewsWatch posted earlier this week about the successful use of RNA nanotechnology to kill cancer cells in mice.

Additionally, [Dr. Peixuan Guo's] team found that the nanoparticles completely block cancer development in living mice. A group of mice that were in the process of developing cancer were tested with the nanoparticles, and they did not develop the disease.
