Team Harvests Cancer-Killing Exosomes From Natural Killer Cells – Technology Networks
Researchers develop a microfluidic chip capable of capturing the body’s natural killer immune cells to harvest their cancer-killing exosomes.
Building on the promise of emerging therapies to deploy the body’s “natural killer” immune cells to fight cancer, researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center and U-M College of Engineering have gone one step further.
They’ve developed what is believed to be the first systematic way to catch natural killer cells and get them to release cancer-killing packets called exosomes. These nano-scale exosomes are thousands of times smaller than natural killer cells — or NK cells for short…
