Tiny DNA-based "nano transporters" can be programmed to treat cancer.



"The DNA-based nanotransporter developed by Alexis Vallée-Bélisle and his team can transport and deliver precise concentrations of drugs: in this picture, doxorubicin, a chemotherapeutic drug. These nanotransporters can also be attached to specific biomolecules to optimize drug distribution. Here, we see a nanotransporter (white) attached to albumin (pink) to maintain doxorubin (light blue) in blood circulation.

The reseachers can use the same transporters for transporting another DNA bites to absolute rightt positions.

The new DNA-based nano-transporters can chemically manipulate to treat cancer. DNA-based medicals can be artificial viruses that are slipping into the wanted cells. Then the DNA, which is programmed cell death can connect itself to the cancer cells or bacteria's genomes and order cancer cells or bacteria to die. 

But the same nanomachines can use to reprogram cells. And that thing makes those nanosystems even more interesting than just for a new type of medical work. Artificial viruses can use to reprogram stem cells. And those kinds of things can be the next-generation tools for injury treatments. 

The DNA that is transported to some cells can turn them into another one. There is the possibility to turn stem cells into things like neurons simply by switching their genome. But the problem in the case of injuries is that there is needed lots of stem cells. And that thing brings one of the most radical therapies to my mind. 

What if we would turn our cells into cancer cells and then return them to healthy cells? That kind of ability makes it possible to create lots of needed cells in a short period. The idea is that the victims' cells will turn into cancer cells in cell cultures. 

And then system replaces the DNA of those cells by using healthy DNA. These kinds of therapies are the next-generation tools for fixing things like neural damage. The problem with neural damage is memories or skills that those lost cells involved are gone. Those neurons can also reprogram before they are injected into brain tissue. 

The next-generation stem cell therapies can also use to produce neurons or sterile neurons for the microchip industry. Those neurons can communicate with microchips. And that makes it possible to create more powerful and flexible computer systems.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
