Cutting-edge Nanorobot killed a cancer cell The Nanorobot has a weapon hidden in a nanostructure and exposed only in the tumor microenvironment, sparing healthy cells. “If you were to administer it as a drug, it would indiscriminately start killing cells in the body, which would not be good. To get around this problem, we have hidden the weapon inside a nanostructure built from DNA.” says Professor Björn Högberg at the Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics, Karolinska Institutet Here, innovation meets practical application, empowering us to lead and adapt in an ever-evolving technological landscape.

Challenges: Engineering nanorobots that can safely navigate the complex human circulatory system. Avoiding immune system attacks on nanorobots. Ensuring biocompatibility and avoiding toxic effects. While nanorobots for cancer treatment are not yet widely available for clinical use, the field is progressing rapidly. Breakthroughs in precision targeting, biocompatibility, and safety are paving the way for nanotechnology to revolutionize cancer therapy in the near future. It is expected that the next decade will bring significant advancements, potentially transforming cancer treatment into a more targeted, less invasive, and highly effective process.
Ah yes, another 'cure' found! But of course, we'll probably never see it reach the masses. Why cure something when you can just treat it forever and keep the money flowing? Seems like the real breakthrough here is figuring out how to keep people sick enough to keep buying medication. Who needs a cure when you’ve got profit margins to protect?
A fascinating development in nanotechnology and medicine, particularly with its potential to revolutionize cancer treatment. The ability to create nanorobots that precisely target tumor cells while sparing healthy cells is a significant leap forward. The use of a DNA-built nanostructure to hide the “weapon” until it reaches the tumor’s microenvironment demonstrates an innovative approach to overcoming the challenge of selective targeting in cancer therapies. It’s exciting to see how interdisciplinary collaboration between biochemistry, biophysics, and technology is opening doors to new possibilities in precision medicine.
Pascal BORNET , the animation is highly misleading when compared to the graphics included in the published journal article. There is a credit at bottom of your post's illustration for an AI company. Doesn't this mislead people into believing a nano robotics capability exists that in fact does not? https://news.ki.se/nanorobot-with-hidden-weapon-kills-cancer-cells#:~:text=Researchers%20at%20Karolinska%20Institutet%20have,in%20the%20journal%20Nature%20Nanotechnology
The potential eradication of insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes poses a significant disruption to the pharmaceutical industry, which is the third-largest selling industry globally, surpassed only by arms and fashion. The question remains whether pharmaceutical companies will relinquish control of this substantial market share to emerging tech companies, and only time will reveal the outcome.
That's awesome! Even though like others already said - you can't earn money by saving life's "easily". There are many ways to destroy cancer, different studies - as well with concentrated vitamin C injecting directly into the cancer... (depends at the stadium of course...) and many other stuff.. it's very sad... the same thing about exo-skeleton for training nerves or giving people a new life with a new hand, leg, back.... a good human is a sick human...
Where does the cancer go from there? Wouldn’t destroying release it everywhere else, potentially causing a bigger spread? I don’t see a vaccum on the nanobot.
One my question is like do these nanobots have life cycle or they keep on working Means to say after they serve their purpose… How we can neutralize them in the human body As it remain foreign particles too

1moIn a world plagued by conflict, it's heartening to see that some people are using advanced technologies to save lives. However, it’s disheartening to realize that much of the global focus is on weapons of destruction, rather than on developing medical innovations to combat diseases like cancer, diabetes, and others. We need to ask ourselves—if we can't save human lives, what is the true value of all this technological progress?
