Mashup Score: 12Molecular jackhammers’ ‘good vibrations’ eradicate cancer cells - 4 month(s) ago
Rice University scientists and collaborators at Texas A&M University and University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have found a new way to kill cancer cells by using near-infrared light to make a small dye molecule attached to their membrane vibrate strongly. It is the first time this kind of mechanical molecular action has been used as a potential therapy.
