Re: Nanorobots made out of DNA seek and kill cancer cells

Lsvitek95 — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 23:18:22 -0000

If this is true then Nanorobots made out of DNA that seek out and kill cancer cells would be the miracle that we have all been praying for. I hope and pray for the additional funding and grants to do the additional research to qualify this as safe for use in the future. My daughter is currently 5yrs old and is fighting Leukemia. Current medicine delivers chemo therapy that does NOT pick and choose what it destroys. So today's medicine kills all types of cells that are healthy too white, platelet, and hemoglobin. Causing the need for numerous blood labs, numerous blood product transfusions, numerous nights at the hospital. In addition, the overall toll it takes on the patient with their physical, mental, and social health. This type of medicine as long as it is proven safe and reliable would help so many!

How do you know if burned hotter 300 million years ago? It was still in it's yellow phase then and thus probably about the same temperature.

extremely impractical! there are thousand of good sized objects each of which would require one of these janitors at a very hefty cost (many millions counting the launch vehicle). And who is going to pay for this janitorial service? And there are millions of small but damaging items that can't even be tracked. What about those?

Thank you for the article, Bruce. I wish I was able to see these amazing finds. The things our earth tells us, just waiting to be listened to and interpreted. Wonderful adventures still to come.

Of course the sun burned hotter 300 million years ago then it did today. But then 300 million years ago pollution and human disposability, stupidity and hubris hadnt cracked the ozone. Is this where I say CHECK CHECK MATE? What a silly, antagonistic, egotistical, I am right you are wrong question. You sound like a child. ha ha ha ha ha. If youre an adult, the mentality you are showing isnt becoming. Science is about LEARNING NEW THNGS! When you keep such a closed mind and mentality you learn NOTHING!
