Nanotech News - Targeted pH Sensitive Nanoparticle Releases Drug Inside Tumor Cells

Nanotech News - Targeted pH Sensitive Nanoparticle Releases Drug Inside Tumor Cells:
"A multidisciplinary team of investigators at the University of Tokyo in Japan has created a self-assembling nanostructure that targets human cancer cells and releases drug molecules in response to a change in pH that is characteristic of many types of cancer (click here for more on self-assembly). This work was published in the journal Molecular BioSystems."
