  • Delivering drugs directly to cancer cells could help reduce the unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Nano have made shape-morphing microrobots that can be guided with magnets to cancer cells. ACS’ Headline Science reveals how these devices travel and release their chemotherapy cargo.

      they give you cancer so they can slowly heal you if you have the money.
      Cancer can be cured with chemistry true, just balance you acids in your body and become PH positive instead of in acidic state. cancer with then die.

    If feasible, is there any reason why you couldn't inject the chemo drug directly into the cancerous tumor with a syringe?

    • @munchi5459
      @munchi5459 2 года назад +5

      I’m not an expert but they already do this, look into intralesional chemotherapy. This seems like a way to eventually get to specific cancer cells that are much smaller than a syringe can manage.

    • @samibinol
      @samibinol 2 года назад +4

      This method would also kill spread out cancer which wouldn’t be affected by the injection directly into the cancer. I think.

    • @TomTheTeddyBear
      @TomTheTeddyBear 2 года назад +4

      This has the potential to turn what could be an incredibly painful and invasive procedure into something that almost goes unnoticed. There are many places on the human body where syringe can't reach, a tumor in the middle of your brain for instance. This is an amazing technology and I'm excited for the future.

      if the drug isn't contained in something it will be uptook by other tissues on its way to the cancer and cause side-effects so we would gain nothing
