#Optimal particle size for anticancer nanomedicines discovered Nanomedicines consisting of nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery to specific tissues
Understanding the interdependency of physiochemical properties of nanomedicines in correlation to their biological responses and functions is crucial for their further development of as cancer-fighters.
To develop next generation nanomedicines with superior anticancer attributes we must understand the correlation between their physicochemical properties--specifically particle size
While most current approved anticancer nanomedicines'sizes range from 100-200 nm recent studies showed that anticancer nanomedicines with smaller sizes--specifically of 50 nm
Our studies show clear evidence that there is an optimal particle size for anticancer nanomedicines resulting in the highest tumor retention.
To further develop insight into the size dependency of nanomedicines in tumor accumulation and retention the researchers developed a mathematical model of the spatiotemporal distribution of nanoparticles within a spherically symmetric tumor.
The results are extremely important to guide the future research in designing new nanomedicines for cancer treatment Cheng noted
In addition a new nanomedicine developed by the Illinois researchers--with precisely engineered size at the optimal size range--effectively inhibited a human breast cancer
#New lab-on-a-chip could revolutionize early diagnosis of cancer Scientists have been laboring to detect cancer and a host of other diseases in people using promising new biomarkers called exosomes.
Dubbed the lab-on-a-chip the device promises faster result times reduced costs minimal sample demands and better sensitivity of analysis when compared with the conventional bench-top instruments now used to examine the tiny biomarkers.
A lab-on-a-chip shrinks the pipettes test tubes and analysis instruments of a modern chemistry lab onto a microchip-sized wafer Zeng said.
Zeng and his fellow researchers have developed the lab-on-a-chip for early detection of lung cancer--the number-one cancer killer in the U s. Today lung cancer is detected mostly with an invasive biopsy after tumors are larger than 3 centimeters in diameter and even
Using the lab-on-a-chip lung cancer could be detected much earlier using only a small drop of a patient's blood.
Zeng said the prototype lab-on-a-chip is made of a widely used silicone rubber called polydimethylsiloxane and uses a technique called on-chip immunoisolation.
Beyond lung cancer Zeng said the lab-on-a-chip could be used to detect a range of potentially deadly forms of cancer.

#Leti Announces Launch of First European Nanomedicine Characterisation Laboratory: Project Combines Expertise of 9 Partners in 8 Countries to Foster Nanomedicine Innovation and Facilitate Regulatory Approval CEA-Leti today announced the launch of the European Nano-Characterisation Laboratory (EU
-NCL) funded by the European union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programm 1 e. Its main objective is to reach a level of international excellence in nanomedicine characterisation for medical indications like cancer, diabetes, inflammatory diseases or infections,
and make it accessible to all organisations developing candidate nanomedicines prior to their submission to regulatory agencies to get the approval for clinical trials and, later,
marketing authorization. s reported in the ETPN White paper 2, there is a lack of infrastructure to support nanotechnology-based innovation in healthcare,
said Patrick Boisseau, head of business development in nanomedicine at CEA-Leti and chairman of the European Technology Platform Nanomedicine (ETPN).
anocharacterisation is the first bottleneck encountered by companies developing nanotherapeutics. The EU-NCL project is of most importance for the nanomedicine community,
as it will contribute to the competiveness of nanomedicine products and tools and facilitate regulation in Europe.
EU-NCL is partnered with the sole international reference facility, the Nanotechnology Characterization Lab of the National Cancer Institute in the U s. US-NCL) 3,
director of U s. NCL. e hope this collaboration will help standardize regulatory requirements for clinical evaluation and marketing of nanomedicines internationally.
as it will be the first transnational infrastructure in nanomedicine. It aims at fostering innovation by sharing knowledge and technologies between academia and industry.
and will also develop new or improved analytical assays to keep EU-NCL at the cutting edge of nanomedicine characterisation.
