'Troy horse' kills cancer

Australian scientists have found a method called 'Trojan horse' that can directly kill cancer cells without causing side effects to the human body.

Specifically, the scientists used a nanoparticle called EDV to penetrate and weaken cancer cells by secreting Ribonucleic acid molecules (siRNA). SiRNA disrupts DNA production of proteins that help cancer cells to resist chemotherapy. After that, a second wave of EDV destroys cancer cells with chemotherapy drugs.

The 'Trojan horse' measure is able to directly kill cancer cells more effectively.

The 'Trojan horse' measure is able to directly kill cancer cells without affecting other tissues in the body. Currently, cancer therapists often use injections or take chemotherapy as a chemotherapy, causing both healthy cells and cancer to be destroyed, affecting the health of patients.

Dr. Jennifer MacDiarmid and Himanshu Brahmbhatt in Sydney have successfully tested this method in mice carrying human cancer cells. Scientists plan to test the 'Trojan horse' method on people this week at Peter MacCullum Cancer Center at Royal Melbourne Hospital and at Melbourne University.
