Fresh data on cancer gene therapy are presented in the report 'The design of multifunctional microbubbles for ultrasound image-guided cancer therapy.' "Gas-filled microbubbles are widely used in diagnostic imaging. Recent developments have greatly enhanced the potential use of microbubbles for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications," investigators in Roma, Italy report (see also Cancer Gene Therapy).
"For the potential use of microbubbles in therapeutic applications, the chemical nature of the shell and its mechanical properties are crucial, and requires a tailored synthetic approach. This review describes methods of preparation, mechanism of action, in vitro and in vivo …
