Experts from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA, proposed to use mechanisms that are already at the heart of the disease in the fight against cancer, that is, they are capable of killing cancer cells. It turns out that at the present time, they really can be " For this, scientists have developed nanofibers.

Cancer cells attach very easily to nanofibers. Then they move in a given direction.. Scientists conducted tests on animals that have a brain tumor. The results of the experiment showed that the cancer can actually be reduced in size. This is real in the case when cancer cells migrate to the specified place..

In a scientific study, scientists worked with glioblastoma, the most common brain disease. In medicine, cancer cells are known to travel through blood vessels and nerves.. Such interesting and useful information became available thanks to the BBC news portal.

Scientists have developed nanofibers that mimic " It is for them that it is really possible to “drag harmful cells into the zone of implantation of a toxic gel”, this is how the mechanism of the work of nanofibers is described by the medical news portal MEDdaily.

In the course of scientific research, the use of this method of work in the fight against the size of a brain tumor turned out to be much more effective compared to the volume of a tumor in animals in the treatment of which a course of therapy was used..

As for the formation of new tumors, by the way, they no longer formed, and the primary neoplasm somehow dried out. It is likely that such a method of controlling cancer will be chronic, but not fatal..

Nanofibers, according to scientists, can simplify operations during which malignant cancer cells are removed. This is very important, since every millimeter of tissue is important for the brain.. If the surgeon is given the opportunity to remove the affected tissue much easier, the patient will have fewer negative consequences..
