Seoul - Yonhap
South Korean scientists said Wednesday that they have developed a nanoparticle anti-cancer drug delivery system that could help doctors better fight the potentially fatal disease. The researchers led by Lee Sang-cheon, Kyunghee University dentistry professor, said the nanoparticle capsule made from silica carried tumor fighting drugs directly to cancerous growth in animal tests. Such a delivery system raises effectiveness of the drugs and reduce side effects.
