Protein-Antibody Conjugates (PACs): A Major Breakthrough in Cancer Research
Recently, a team of scientists from the University of Massachusetts (U.S.) engineered a nanoparticle that has the potential to revolutionize treatment of ailments like cancer and many other incurable diseases.
- This new research combines two different approaches to drug delivery - biologics and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) - to produce nanoparticles called protein-antibody conjugates (PACs) that can be used for precise and effective targeted drug delivery to the specific affected cells.
Biologics
- Biologics are products isolated from various natural sources - human, animal, or microorganisms and represent a promising approach to drug delivery.
- Biologics can be composed of proteins, sugars, or nucleic acids ....
