Multi-Functional Cancer Drug Delivery Nanodevice for Precision Medicine
TS-041485 — Using the scaffolded DNA origami molecular self-assembly process, a manufactured DNA nanostructure can be created that circumvents MDR1/MRP-1 protein efflux pump-mediated multi-drug resistance in cancer cells to deliver clinically significant concentrations of chemotherapeutics.
The majority of human cancers remain incurable, in many cases this is due to innate or developed multi-drug resistance (MDR). Current therapeutics used in treatment are inadequate in light of such resistance, and more robust approaches must be found to circumvent these responses and deliver therap…
