The world of science finds cures for many diseases with the development of technology. Scientists who want to prevent cancer, one of the most common diseases of our age, continue their work at full speed. Researchers have discovered a way to destroy cancer cells. Here are the details…

New method in cancer treatment: Near infrared light may be hope for cancer patients!

Scientists continue to work on cancer, one of the most dangerous diseases of our age. Finally, these efforts are bearing fruit. There are promising developments. In the laboratory, researchers observed that aminocyanin molecules vibrated synchronously when stimulated with near-infrared light. This vibration was enough to rupture the membranes of the cancer cells.

So what are these aminocyanin molecules? Scientists use aminocyanin molecules as synthetic dyes in bioimaging. They usually use low doses to detect cancer. These molecules remain stable in water and are very good at binding to the outside of cells.

A similar development had occurred before. Scientists had developed another type of cancer-killing molecules. This research is conducted by a research team from Rice University, Texas A&M University and the University of Texas. Scientists noted that this new approach is better than previously developed cancer-killing molecular machines called Feringa-type motors, which can also lyse cancer cells.

“This is a completely new generation of molecular machines that we call molecular crushers. They are also a million times faster in mechanical motion than older Feringa-type motors and can be activated by near-infrared light instead of visible light,” Rice University chemist James Tour said. said.

The use of near infrared light is very important for the medical world. Because it allows scientists to go deep into the body. The need for surgery to remove cancer and cancer growth in bones and organs is reduced. Potential treatments instead of surgery become commonplace.

The results in tests on cultured cancer cells grown in the laboratory were very positive. The molecular crusher method achieved a 99 percent accuracy rate in destroying the cells. This approach was also tested on mice with melanoma tumors. As a result of the test, half of the animals managed to get rid of cancer.
