On being irradiated with near infrared light the dye gets heated up and facilitates the release of the extract from polymer membrane. After 4-5 minutes of irradiation about 80% of…
Small molecules used along with anticancer drug makes cancer cells sensitive to the drug. Resistance to anticancer drugs is a major problem in oncology affecting a large number of cancer patients. Now, researchers at the…
Researchers at the Pune-based National Centre for Cell Science (NCCS) have been successful in isolating cancer stem cells that cause skin cancer. They have also been able to demonstrate that…
