First Anti-Cancer Nanoparticle Trial On Humans a Success
An anonymous reader writes "Nanoparticles have been able to disable cancerous cells in living human bodies for the first time. The results are perfect so far, killing tumors with no side effects whatsoever. Mark Davis, project leader at CalTech, says that 'it sneaks in, evades the immune system, delivers the siRNA, and the disassembled components exit out.' Truly amazing."
... to start smoking ....
Whoa slow down there. Do you know how long it'll take to patent the treatment for each individual disease?
Well I can finally go to California, everything is known to cause cancer in California,
Or "its known to the State of California to cause cancer".
I could never figure it out, so I just stay away from California.
Nanotechnology, huh?
And here I had all my money on the Murai vaccine.
1. Start smoking, paying $$$ for cigs
2. Get cancer
3. Pay $$$ for an operation to remove cancer cells
4. ???
5. Profit ?!?
Camel Lights, now with siRNA Nanoparticles!
Gizmodo? Call me when a reputable publication reports on this.
You came to Slashdot because Gizmodo isn't a reputable publication? Hehehe.

Great post. But please, can we stop using effect as a verb?
No. We only need to effect such a change such that people stop using the verb "to effect" incorrectly.
Let q be a radix > 1. I am in ur base-q, killing 10 d00ds.
...everything is known to cause cancer in California...
Are you saying that this nano thingy will consume the whole state?
For justice, we must go to Don Corleone
I quit yesterday :-(
FUCK YES. Only in the perversion known as "the human condition" would something as pleasurable as smoking be lethal.
Break out the cuban cigars and pass me a diet Pepsi... sure you can smoke 'em if you got em! Cancer, smancer.... i eat urea formaldehyde foam insulation for breakfast!

Any technology which is distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

3. Sell cure for cancer

Sir, the man was killed by tiny Nano particles
Hmmm, I guess...
In the end...
It is the little things that matter
There is no -1 disagree
it's got siRNA, it's what plants crave!
