Created an artificial virus, entering a position in the cancer cells and deliver these anti-cancer agent - drugs and genes, say South Korean scientists. According to experts, the majority of lung cancer by genetic abnormalities in cells, mechanisms off destroy mutated cells, which control reproduction begins. You interrupt the proliferation of cells, but the main problem is how to. The drug into the nucleus, where its genetic apparatus together deliver Natural viruses are very effective in delivering genes into cells, but they can trigger an immune response and cancer. Specialists say that it has created an artificial virus no such side effects. The scientists used a new strategy that resulted in the creation of an artificial virus-specific size and shape. During the study, biologists used as a template protein structure, and protein "hand" holding the so-called spiral short interfering RNA. This type of RNA, according to scientists, has played a key role, as he turned off the genes in the cells, which was compatible. As a result of the synthesis of the corresponding protein was blocked, which is a promising technology in gene therapy. Scientists have also shown that it is created an artificial viruses able to. In the nuclei of cancer cells, to penetrate the DNA damage Making cancer drugs delivered directly into the nucleus.
