But a research team at the 海角直播 NanoScience Technology Center has found a more accurate test that not only determines whether a patient has prostate cancer, but also how aggressive it is.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s really what is unique and exciting about our new discovery,\u201d said associate professor Qun \u201cTreen\u201d Huo, the lead investigator on the project. \u201cOur nanoparticles not only seek out a chemical reaction that is specific to prostate cancer, they can also tell us how aggressive the cancerous cells are likely to be, which can give doctors better information to treat their patients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Current tests can\u2019t tell how aggressive the cancer is, which often leads to the gland\u2019s removal when other options might be available. For example, a very aggressive type of cancer in a young man may require immediate removal of his prostate gland to save his life. A slow-acting cancer in a young patient may give him more options that are less radical.<\/p>\n<p>And options are good because the prostate is a very important gland. It helps regulate urine flow and is involved in the production of semen in men. The effects of surgical removal of the prostate gland can range from mild loss of erection and pain on orgasm, to total loss of erection and incontinence.<\/p>\n<p>Huo\u2019s work is published in the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/translational-medicine.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/1479-5876-10-44\">Journal of Translational Medicine<\/a>\u00a0 <\/em>today.<\/p>\n<p>The technique is rather simple, Huo said.<\/p>\n<p>She uses gold nanoparticles that detect a specific chemical reaction between a prostate tumor and the human immunoglobulin G (IgG). IgG is an abundant protein circulating in the blood.\u00a0 Research has shown that IgG likes to stick to the surface of the gold nanoparticles to form a protein corona. This corona can be detected by a technique called dynamic light scattering. \u00a0Huo found that when cancer cells are present, they can \u201cdestroy\u201d the IgG in the blood, and this specific interaction is picked up by the gold nanoparticles. Using this simple test, Huo can determine quantitatively how aggressive the prostate tumors are and the likelihood they will metastasize. The team tested out the technique on human tissue samples.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had already done our study with animal and human blood samples,\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/jnanobiotechnology.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/1477-3155-9-20\"><em>J. Nanobiotechnology<\/em><\/a>, ) Huo said. \u201cNow we\u2019ve confirmed our findings in both animal models and human tissue samples. I am in the process of conducting a validation study with the Florida Hospital Cancer Institute and I am very confidant the technology works.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If all goes well, clinical trials could begin in \u00a0two to three years, and Huo hopes the diagnostic tool could be routinely used by physicians in as little as five years. The test most likely would be used to supplement those already used to provide doctors with more quantitative and accurate information, which could lead to more treatment options.<\/p>\n<p>The system that detects the reaction was discovered in Huo\u2019s lab four years ago. It\u2019s called \u201cnanoparticle-enabled dynamic light scattering assay (NanoDLSay) and it is being used by many researchers around the world for everything from detecting cancer in blood to finding lead in water.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re looking for funding now to get to the next step,\u201d Huo said.<\/p>\n<p>The National Science Foundation and the Florida Department of Health Bankhead-Coley Foundation funded a lot of the basic research that went into creating the new technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUltimately it\u2019s about working together to help doctors help patients,\u201d Huo said. \u201cThat\u2019s why I research cancer. I want to help make that happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Collaborators on the project include: Shannon Sullivan and Hillari Hallquist also from the UCF NanoScience Technology Center, and Sally A. Litherland, Dr. David A. Decker and Inoel Rivera-Ramirez from the Florida Hospital Cancer Institute.<\/p>\n<p>Huo joined UCF in 2005 after working as an assistant professor at North Dakota State 海角直播.\u00a0 She has a doctorate degree in chemistry from the 海角直播 of Miami and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the same institution. She earned a National Science Foundation CAREER award among other recognition. She also is a panel review member for the National Institutes of Health. She has several patents for her innovative work. At UCF she works at the NanoScience Technology Center and has joint appointments in the department of chemistry, college of medicine and department of mechanics, materials and aerospace engineering. She also is president of Nano Discovery Inc. a start-up company that she cofounded to commercialize NanoDLSay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s a serious problem and current diagnostic tests aren\u2019t very specific.
