DAVIS–Researchers at the University of California, Davis have discovered a key mechanism by which dietary omega-3 fatty acids (fish oils) could reduce the tumor growth and spread of cancer, a disease that kills some 580,000 Americans a year. In groundbreaking research, the team of 16 scientists led by Dr. Guodong Zhang of the Bruce Hammock laboratory, Department ...Presentation at the MRgFUS Symposium “Nanoparticles locate tumor, deliver drugs”
Nanoparticles are under investigation for a wide range of cancer-management applications: from imaging tumour cells to targeted delivery of therapeutic drugs. Now, researchers at the University of California, Davis are developing ultrasound-activated liposomes that can combine tumour imaging and therapy within a single system.
