In the last few years, scientists have developed a whole range of nanoparticles and complementary activation mechanisms that safely ferry and release therapeutic payloads at target sites within the body. Yet, smarter nanoparticles are on the way that can be programmed to do things in more complicated and effective ways. Researchers at MIT have reported on a new nanoparticle that can release two different drugs at different times, significantly compounding the killing effect when compared to unregulated release of the drugs.
