Nanotechnology Blows Therapeutic Innovations in Gene Therapy
According to a new research report by RNCOS entitled, "Global Gene Therapy Market Outlook 2018", nanotechnology is being increasingly incorporated in gene therapy to make gene transfer easier. Recently scientists at the University of Tokyo have built a nanocarrier being capable of light-mediated gene delivery into a solid cancerous tumor. The nanocarrier comprised of polyplex micelle - a self-assembling structure with three distinct layers. The micelle comprises a pDNA core, followed by an intermediary layer of dendrimeric photosensitizer (DPc), and...
