PORTLAND, Ore. – Scientists at Oregon State University have developed a new nanomaterial that triggers a pair of chemical reactions inside cancer cells, killing the cells via oxidative stress while leaving healthy tissues alone. The study led by Oleh and Olena Taratula and Chao Wang of the OSU College of Pharmacy was published this week in Advanced Functional Materials.

Original Title: Scientists develop new nanomaterial that triggers chemical reactions inside cancer cells, killing them while leaving healthy tissues alone. When administered in mice bearing human breast cancer cells, it completely eradicated the cancer without side effects, with long-term prevention of recurrence.
