Cutting-edge ‘Trojan horse' tech that makes cancer tumors destroy themselves may work to treat Covid-19 too
Researchers at the University of Zurich have developed a technology that could not only cause cancer tumors to kill themselves, but could also potentially eradicate Covid-19 in people's lungs.
The team used a modified adenovirus – a common type of respiratory virus that is often repurposed and used extensively in medical treatments as a delivery mechanism. The technology, known as SHielded, REtargeted ADenovirus (SHREAD), is akin to a Trojan horse in that it evades detection from the body's own immune system and delivers genetic instructions for therapeutic antibodies directly into the tumor cells themselves.
