Researchers Develop Nano Delivery Method for Cancer Drugs

Scientists have a developed **nanometer-sized** delivery tool for **anticancer agents** that goes undetected by the immune system as it passes through the bloodstream. They say that these devices integrate **therapeutic and diagnostic functions** into a single system. The researchers constructed this nanodevice from lipids modified to enable them to circulate in the bloodstream for many hours before being eliminated. This was demonstrated by the researchers in a series of experiments with mice, according to the team.
