Method to generate cold atmospheric plasma-stimulated media to treat cancer

For successful cancer therapy, the most important aspect is selective eradication of cancer cells without damaging healthy cells. Cancer cells and normal cells have different thresholds for tolerance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) before cell death (apoptosis) is induced. Previously, GW researchers invented a cold...

Magnetically Enhanced Plasma Treatment of Cancer

Previously, GW researchers invented a method to selectively kill cancer cells with cold atmospheric plasma (CAP), while leaving neighboring normal cells unaffected. In the present invention, the researchers devised an enhanced method for CAP cancer therapy by concurrently exposing the cancer cells to a static magnetic field (Fig. 1). The researchers...
