A simple yet effective cancer treatment method involves repurposing clinically approved magnetic nanoparticles and utilizing static parallel magnetic fields for intracellular nanoparticle self-assembly, leading to targeted cell death while preserving other cells and organs intact. This approach opens up a new avenue for cancer treatment by utilizing nanosciences and nanoparticle design principles accumulated over the past decades.
A remarkably simple yet effective mode of cancer treatment is reported by repurposing clinically approved magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Intracellular nanoparticle self-assembly directed by static parallel magnetic fields leads to cell death in targeted tissues while leaving other cells and organs intact. This simple concept opens a new avenue to treat cancer, capitalizing on nanosciences and the nanoparticle (NP) design principles accumulated in the past decades.
