A research team led by Dr. Juyeon Jung at the Bio-Nano Research Center, Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology (KRIBB), has developed a nanobody-based technology that can precisely identify and attack only lung cancer cells, opening new possibilities for cancer therapy.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny particles released by cells that help control egg development. In a recent review, researchers from China explored how EVs influence oocyte health by transferring important molecules between cells. The article discusses how EV function changes under disease conditions and how this affects fertility. It also highlights the growing potential of therapeutic EVs to improve egg quality and treat ovarian disorders, offering new possibilities for advancing reproductive medicine.
Using artificial intelligence, MIT researchers can design nanoparticles that more efficiently deliver RNA vaccines and other types of RNA therapies. This approach could dramatically speed the process of developing new RNA vaccines, as well as RNA therapies that could be used to treat obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders.
For the first time, researchers at Umeå University have demonstrated the full capabilities of their large-scale laser facility. In a study published in Nature Photonics, the team reports generating a combination of ultrashort laser pulses, extreme peak power, and precisely controlled waveforms that make it possible to explore the fastest processes in nature.
