Tracking targeted drug delivery is often a challenge due to limitations in current imaging techniques. A recent study by Tokyo's Waseda University reports a breakthrough imaging technique that allows ...

However, releasing a drug selectively in specific locations in the body, including the brain, has been challenging. Researchers have tackled the problem by designing ultrasound-sensitive nanoparticles ...

Photopharmacology is an emerging approach that uses light-responsive compounds to control drug activity with high spatial and temporal precision. Traditional therapeutics typically result in unwanted ...

Scientists have developed new light-sensitive chemicals that can radically improve the treatment of aggressive cancers with minimal side effects. In mouse tests, the new therapy completely eradicated ...

A multifunctional nanoparticle targets infection, releases nitric oxide, and uses light-triggered heating to eliminate bacteria and support healing in diabetic wounds with drug-resistant biofilms.

Tracking targeted drug delivery is often a challenge due to limitations in the current imaging techniques. A recent study reports a breakthrough imaging technique that allows direct and highly ...

Researchers develop a novel activation imaging technique that enables real-time visualization of gold nanoparticles in the body without the use of external tracers. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are tiny ...
