Develop nanotechnology to kill cancer cells

Scientists at the Shanghai Silicate Research Institute (SICCAS), the Chinese Academy of Sciences have achieved an important breakthrough in therapeutic research that can replace chemotherapy in cancer treatment.

The obvious advantage of this therapy is that it does not destroy healthy cells during the treatment of malignant tumors.

According to a reporter in Beijing, chemotherapy in cancer treatment now uses drugs that can kill cancer cells, but also kill healthy cells, thereby Causes side effects such as impaired immune system, fatigue and hair loss.

SICCAS scientists have invented a therapeutic therapy that can move to all parts of the body and target only tumors without affecting healthy cells.

Dr. Thi Kiem Lam (Shi Jianlin), the leader of the research team at SICCAS, said the experiments on mice showed that the size of tumors decreased by 85% after undergoing the treatment.

Nanoparticles, inorganic and non-toxic, will cause a reaction in the acidic environment of the tumor, thereby destroying large amounts of oxygen molecules and blocking the vascular system in cancer cells to prevent supply oxygen and nutrition from outside. Therefore, it will eventually be dissipated because it cannot provide oxygen and nutrients.

Also according to Dr. Thi Kiem Lam, the above study is still within the scope of laboratory testing. However, new therapies have also demonstrated the ability to prevent metastasis.
