A research paper by scientists from Southern University of Science and Technology developed a near-infrared (NIR) light-activated biomimetic nanomotor for targeted nitric oxide (NO) delivery and synergistic cancer therapy.
The new research paper, published on Apr. 24 in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems, developed a new light‑activated nanomotor platform combines photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, and nitric oxide (NO) gas therapy in one tiny, tumor‑hunting vehicle.

A new study led by researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst suggests that even people with a high genetic risk for Type 2 diabetes can substantially reduce their chances of developing the disease by adopting healthier lifestyles—and that more than half of cases might be preventable.
Researchers at Bar-Ilan University have successfully restored youthful patterns of DNA organization in the livers of old mice, reversing key molecular features associated with aging.
The study, published in Nature Communications, identifies the protein SIRT6 as a powerful protector against age-related breakdown in chromatin, the complex system that packages DNA and controls how genes are switched on and off.
The findings suggest that aging is not simply a passive process of wear and tear but may be driven in part by reversible changes in the way DNA is organized inside cells.
Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic condition characterized by accelerated aging, severe vascular fragility, and reduced life expectancy. In a rare case study, researchers report a traumatic brain injury case in a 15-year-old adolescent with HGPS, where conventional management methods failed, owing to no curative therapies for HGPS and limited benefits from lonafarnib. The report concludes by stressing the need for improved multidisciplinary trauma care strategies when managing patients with HGPS.
