The targeted organ is targeted with a bioluminescent dye, which is better assimilated into cancer cells than in normal ones. Then expose to XRays, which only lights up the cancer cells. (This exists today, and widely used in cancer diagnostic) The light activates the machines only in the bioluminescent areas -- which are the cancerous cells. voila -- I think.
How long do the nano machines continue to operate? Can they be turned off (I know remove the light... but what if they migrate to skin and are then activated by sunlight?)
Astonishingly beautiful image from confocal (I guess it is :D ). If by any chance you are in this trend what are youre future: what are potential application of them in cell biology?
Yes, that seems to be the crux of this dilemma. We have all these ingenious new ways of fighting cancer. But the real battle seems to be identifying cellular markers unique only to cancerous cells. Sometimes a marker will be found that is only present on cancerous thyroid cells. But then with further analysis we find healthy bone cells express the same tumor marker. So to treat the thyroid cancer you willl also have to attack the healthy bone cells. Secondly, the cancerous markers should ideally be linked as closely as possible to the livelihood of the cell. Those are even harder to identify. Most cell surface markers can be genetically repressed if we start throwing chemotherapy at those specific markers. The tumor then represses those markers and finds other way to adapt and keep living.
What could be done would be to make the molecular machines in such a way that they bind to cells that take a lot of sugar. For their uncontrolled growth, cancer cells consume loads of sugar. Then broad lighting of the region of cancer tumor would essentially kill cancer cells. Of course this is not ideal because some other body parts love sugar. But I think it is part of solution.
If you need light, and a very specific one at that, to activate it, how will you deliver it to the patients intestines at all, let alone in a non-invasive way?
Read the journal article. They state that UV light has low penetration, and is only applicable to skin and surface cells. However, they also state that using high penetration wavelengths, such as near infra-red, provides the penetration necessary to target cells throughout the body.
The other day I fell asleep at the dinner table and my husband was right across from me , on his phone. I had a nightmare in that few seconds. My hand popped real loud and it blew up smoke coming off my hand. When the smoke cleared there were coils in my hand instead of bones and the nanobots were positioned all along the coil,(like a cartoon) the nanobots were smiling at me. They had hard hats on and their hairs sticking out all krinkled and they had snaggle toothed grins. Regular folks are tired of being science experiments. How would you like all your teeth to fall out , one at a time over to a 3 year period.finally leaving you with one tooth. That is not loose and probably has a chip under it. Thank God I am saved. Someone is gonna answer for the torture that's being done to regular people who have a hard enough life as it is. Targeted individuals exist! Barely!
If these things can kill cancer cells, then they can no doubt be customized to also cause cancer. Inject a little benzene, HIV, bacteria, etc into these cells and it's light's out for the recipient.
Probably pretty tough to inject anything into them since they're thousands of times smaller than a cell, are more or less a configuration of molecules, and only "drill" when activated by light (probably at a specific wavelength). No doubt there are likely ways of weaponizing it, as with anything else. But not in this fashion I think
3 problems 1. Sunlight probably won't cut it, you probably need a light source with a more specific (and likely much smaller) wavelength to even interact with them 2. Intensity and light direction is likely also a factor which would mean a laser would be needed to activate them 3. Your skin is kinda in the way
and i was joking. this is not going to work unless the victim either uses an UV machine or gets a sunburn. and a sunburn already destroys your cells anyway so idk
My thoughts are: if we can activate these nano machines directly near JUST THE CANCER CELLS then we have a great idea. What if you triangulate the light waves to the specific cancer cells at 1/3 the power, that way, the nanomachines don't activate near the non-target cells
OK, now after they are introduced and finished off the cancer cells, how are they removed from the body? As I see it, you need to build them into mobile drilling rigs complete with a automatic driver. You don't send in billions. You estimate the number of cancerous cells and send in a squad straight into the affected area. After each driller locates and destroys one cell, it disengages and seek out the next. Once the job is done, you give the patient an injection that disassembles the nano machines. If the condition returns, you give the patient another injection that reassembles them again.
.. and of course any dangerous bacteria that is caused by food is dangerous.. and sometime fatal., also if this works.. than more research into people suffering from brain damage... maybe cells become new and maybe good hope for people who suffer from seizures...
I'm not discrediting this research whatsoever. If perfected, it has the opportunity to save countless lives. I'm just thinking another step ahead. Cancer will fight back eventually, and we will constantly have to alter and perfect this technology to stay ahead of the genetic arms race that is Oncology.
I said in the previous post, I don't know how. There are so many variables to consider. Cancers from different cellular lineages have very different characteristics. Cancer behaves as a living, breathing, (somewhat)autonomous organism within our bodies. It expresses darwinian selective survival just like any other organism does. It is entirely plausible that cancer could develop resistance to this, or any other treatment. Do you disagree? If so, for what reasons?
Nanomachines, Son!
They harden in response to physical trauma

I was wrong your not greedy YOUR BATSHIT INSANE
this is a keystone development. i'm impressed and thankful to hear this has come now
Do they harden in response to physical trauma?
I believe so, which would also mean that Jack can't hurt me

That's debatable, ask the people being used as secret guinea pigs . It's domestic terrorism

This is major breakthrough!
i'm not so sure about the trap instrumental tho...
Induced fit, I think
Sure it COULD be a great thing. Except when used for nefarious reasons.
is their such thing as precessional forces at the nanoscale?
Finally, real hope! Now to make it available to everyone. I fear Government regulations will thrwart true availability but I hope I am wrong! God bless these scientists!
I think it depends on the countries, the US will make it expensive but semi-socialist countries like Germany, Nerherlands etc will make it free.
Enjoy jabbing it into your body.. this isnt a good thing..
When you say “God bless these scientists”, what god are you talking about?
Brilliant! How does the light get to the machine if it is in the body?
Its called a "Laser" ;)
it doesn't.

Okay, I'll do it.

Cool I can't wait to get my nanomachines, son.
Is it possible to donate money on these awesome scientists (!) to help them continue their awesome work?
This is the future
How long do the nano machines continue to operate? Can they be turned off (I know remove the light... but what if they migrate to skin and are then activated by sunlight?)
Exactly!!!!!!!
Wonderful! I would like to ask: Is this the first time a cancer cell is destroyed by a nano-machine?
Nanomachines son >:v

Amazing! What a great time to be alive!
Don't worry after they talk you into a brain chip , you won't be human anymore. So being alive is debatable.
Has this been trialed while in a human or just in lab on a plate, to late some not quick enough for other.
Bacteriophage are kinda like nanomachine too.
Sounds like they are indescriminate in their destruction. However if they can target cancer only, then a huge breakthrough

Congratulations, these are very good news!
Nice ... now the billion dollar question is how do we weaponize it ...

Probably pretty tough to inject anything into them since they're thousands of times smaller than a cell, are more or less a configuration of molecules, and only "drill" when activated by light (probably at a specific wavelength).
No doubt there are likely ways of weaponizing it, as with anything else. But not in this fashion I think
get them into peoples bloodstream and let the sunlight do the rest
3 problems
1. Sunlight probably won't cut it, you probably need a light source with a more specific (and likely much smaller) wavelength to even interact with them
2. Intensity and light direction is likely also a factor which would mean a laser would be needed to activate them

These are way smaller than a cell. You need thousands of nanomachines per cell.
A lot of machines are planned to be biodegradable. Once they enter your body, they just kinda die without harming the body
Nanomachine, son
I'm just gonna say NANOMACHINES SON

Playing God? I doubt that will work well!
We become gods cause theres no god to help us.
Perhaps maybe, just maybe, God gave us these tools to "play" God.
What, is cancer like this gift from God that we should cherish?

Salut a tous c'est mcskyz. Vous aurez pas des nanorobots pour forer la tombe de ma chaine
Imagine a cell that develops resistance to nanomachines. It's unlikely, but given enough time, it will happen.
how?
I'm not familiar enough with the details of the research to speculate how. But, with enough time, evolutions tends to find a way.
I'm not discrediting this research whatsoever. If perfected, it has the opportunity to save countless lives. I'm just thinking another step ahead. Cancer will fight back eventually, and we will constantly have to alter and perfect this technology to stay ahead of the genetic arms race that is Oncology.
How ...??? Your body has yet to develop a resistance to bullets ... it's not biological so it will never form a resistance to it.
