Shutting down backup genes leads to cancer remission, in mice
$2.38M to test nano-engineered brain cancer treatment in mice
A protein that crosses the blood-brain barrier carries a drug that kills tumor cells and another that activates the immune system.

Technique pioneered at the University of Michigan could improve outcomes for cancer and neurological conditions.
Glioblastoma nanomedicine crosses into brain in mice, eradicates recurring brain cancer
‘I’ve worked in this field for more than 10 years and have not seen anything like this.’
Study suggests method to starve pancreatic cancer cells
Rather than attacking cancer cells directly, new cell-model research probes weaknesses in pancreatic cancer’s interactions with other cells to obtain nutrients needed for tumor growth.
