Implantable Living Materials Contain Infection-Sensing Bacteria That Release Therapeutics
Overcoming a major hurdle in the use of microbes as medicine, researchers at Harvard’s Wyss Institute and John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed an “implantable living materials” (ILMs) platform comprising encapsulated infection-sensing bacteria that can release therapeutic molecules on demand but are kept physically separated from the surrounding tissue.
Molecular Anchors Help Tumor Therapies Stay Longer on Cancer Cells
For cancer therapies to work, they need to stay in proximity to the target diseased tissues for long enough. To help with that challenge, a group of scientists, led by a team at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), have developed a drug carrier that physically anchors itself to cancer cell membrane, which helps to improve drug retention and effectiveness. Full details are published in a new ACS Central Science paper titled “ A Prodrug Strategy to Conditionally Trap Therapeutic Payloads for Improved Tumor Retention .”
