Russian scientists have received a grant to create nanoparticles to treat cancer – BFM.Ru

nanoparticles can be used for accurate diagnosis of cancer, and for the highly effective treatment of the tumor

The Russian National Research Technological University (NUST) MISA received a grant of 60 million rubles for the development innovative cancer drugs, the press service of the University.

«A group of scientists led by Dr. Alexander Chemistry Mazhuga starts to develop unique in Russia and in the world of drugs against cancer based on the magnetite nanoparticles” – “Interfax” with reference to the institute.

«The volume of financing of the project – 60 million rubles for the first two years, the grant has been won”, – the report says.

magnetite nanoparticles can be used for precise the diagnosis of cancer, and for the highly effective treatment of the tumor – drug delivery just in a cancer cell. In addition, with the help of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), they will visualize the tumor, the report said.

«Our first task – is the development of diagnostic solutions based on magnetite, which, on the one hand, effectively and without unnecessary dose elicited tumor would, on the other hand, easily and quickly be completely eliminated from the body, “- said Mazhuga.

In the short term, the efforts of scientists will be aimed at finding solutions against liver cancer and prostate cancer, which among the top five most common cancers. The work will be conducted in the new laboratory of the University “Biomedical nanomaterials».
