Development of DNA Nano Robot Kill Switch for Cancer

The chapter explores the creation of a nanobot using DNA to target and kill cancer cells by structuring DNA into nanoscale robots that can change shapes based on the tumor's acidic pH. It discusses inducing apoptosis in cancer cells through clustered death receptors triggered by the acidic environment, leading to promising results in reducing tumor growth. The conversation emphasizes the importance of minimizing off-target damage and ensuring safety through extensive testing, highlighting advancements in cancer treatment using DNA origami robots.
