Lipid coated DNA nanodevices survive immune system and pave the way for smart anticancer DNA nanorobots
Scientists at Harvard’s Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering have mimicked viral tactics to build the first DNA nanodevices that survive the body’s immune defenses. Lipid-coated DNA nanodevices closely resemble those viruses and evade the immune defenses of mice. The results pave the way for smart DNA nanorobots that could use logic to diagnose cancer …
