DESCRIPTION

Chemotherapeutics are key players in the clinical setting to fight most types of cancer, and novel chemicals could facilitate new and unique intracellular interactions that modulate the cell machinery and destroy the tumor cells. Equally necessary are new tools to locate and quantify such molecules in the intracellular nano-space so that their therapeutic action is fully understood.
