Hello,

Gold nanoparticles are a better way to treat cancer than today's methods.

When we reflect on the conventional approaches to cancer treatment today, the terms "chemotherapy" and "radiation therapies" frequently come to mind. These time-honored methods have long been the cornerstone of cancer care.

What else comes to mind when we think of today's traditional methods of treating cancer? Answer: discomfort, pain, and mortality... This shouldn't be the case.

Taking a certain medicine or medical treatment should heal the patient, not make them question their mortality. Baldness is not caused by cancer itself; rather, it is often a result of the toxins from cancer treatments. We need to move away from 20th-century methods of treating cancer and embrace the more advanced approaches to treat cancer that are available in the 21st century.

Gold Nanoparticles are inert, and research studies have proven that they can be made to only attack and kill cancer cells, so there are no life-threatening side-effects associated with this research. 

Gold Nanoparticle Cancer Research has repeatedly shown, in study after study, that it should be one of the 21st century's better ways of treating cancer.

This report provides summaries of the most promising and compelling studies from the past month on gold nanoparticle medical research, with links to original articles and reports for each summary.

Here's what you'll find in this report:

• Follow-up on Naomi J. Halas's research for treating prostate cancer discussed in this blog post Q & A with a Pioneer in Medical Science Naomi J. Halas Ph.D
  

• Stanford University Medicine uses Gold Nanoprisms to enhance molecular images.
  

• Scientists out of the University of Queensland create a Fast and Inexpensive Universal Cancer Test
  

Follow-up on
Naomi J. Halas Ph.D
Human Clinical Trials

Two months ago (November 2018), this guide published a blog post that was a Q & A with Dr. Naomi J. Halas of Rice University in Houston, Texas, seen here.

The 3rd question that was asked of Dr. Halas was in regard to the following question:

• "What is your perspective on how close or far away Gold NanoParticle Cancer Therapy is from coming into the market?"

In Dr. Halas's answer, she stated that her research is the backbone of human clinical trials on men with prostate cancer. The research uses gold nanoshells from Nanospectra Biosciences (a company she co-founded).

In addition, she stated that Dr. Rastinehad of Mt. Sinai Hospital and Steven E. Canfield of UT Health are currently conducting human trials using her gold nanoshells.

Frank Billingsley is one of the individuals who was participating in the Houston clinical trial; he also happens to be a weatherman for a local Houston TV station.

The video below reports his progress.

Stanford University Medicine uses Gold Nanoprisms to
Enhance Molecular Imaging

To view molecular structures inside the body, researchers use a device called Optical Coherence Tomography, or OCT; the imaging system is often used by ophthalmologists to study the different structures of the eye.

Researchers in this study combined the OCT with gold nano-prisms. The gold nanoprism's light refraction properties enhanced the details of the Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), making the images sharper with more detail.

The following excerpt was taken from the Stanford Medicine article about the study:

Adam de la Zerda, PhD, the assistant professor of structural biology, sees the new imaging technique as a "potential step for assessing cancer drug efficacy."

Currently, the study only involves the use of live mice as their test subjects because the gold nanoprisms have to be approved by the FDA before they can be used on humans.  However, the researchers are hoping to expand their research while they wait on the approval.

Low Cost, 10-min Cancer Test is Developed using Gold Nanoparticles

In a scenario where someone had an unknown issue that doctors couldn't pinpoint, this quick and low-cost method of finding cancer would replace the current cancer diagnosis methods.

The study explores the contrasting mechanisms of DNA function in healthy cells versus cancerous cells mutating.

Scientists out of the University of Queensland in Australia found that if cancerous DNA, of any kind, was present in this experiment, the gold nanoparticles would change color.

The lead professor stated the following about the study's results:

Thank You for your Time.

Take Care & God Bless,
