DNA-Based Nanotransporters Deliver Precise Concentrations of Drug

November 3, 2022

Via: GEN

A team of researchers at Université de Montréal (UdeM) has designed and validated a new class of drug transporters made of DNA. About 20,000 times smaller than a human hair, the molecular transporters, known as self-regulated nucleic acid molecular buffers, can be chemically programmed to deliver an optimal concentration of drugs, making them more efficient than current methods. The team suggests that their use could improve how cancers and other diseases are treated.
