"Nejsmutnějším aspektem života v současné době je to, že věda shromažďuje poznatky rychleji, než společnost shromažďuje moudrost."
Isaac Asimov
Vědci z Mendelovy univerzity v Brně našli způsob, jak transportovat léky do nádorem postižené buňky, aniž by toxické sloučeniny zasáhly zdravé orgány. A to pomocí nanotransportéru léčiv. Právě značná toxicita chemoterapie v současné době neumožňuje aplikaci dostatečně vysokých dávek cytostatik potřebných ke zničení nádorových buněk. Za vším stojí objev proteinu apoferitinu, který dokáže ve své dutině vázat molekuly léčiv a cíleně tak dopravit lék k postižené tkáni. Tento objev zařadil tým Ústavu chemie a biochemie mezi excelentní vědecká pracoviště ve výzkumu cíleného transportu nanočástic v nanomedicíně. V léčbě nádorových onemocnění má výzkum vědců Mendelovy univerzity v Brně celosvětový význam.

Description
Extremophiles features original research articles, reviews, and method papers on the biology, molecular biology, structure, function, and applications of microbial life at the edges of survivability. Conditions covered include high or low temperature, pressure, acidity, alkalinity, salinity, or oxygen concentration; or in the presence of organic solvents, heavy metals, normally toxic substances, radiation, or host defense mechanisms. The coverage incorporates aspects of multiple disciplines, including molecular biology, biodiversity, genetics, genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, survival strategies, macromolecular structure, development, biotechnology, fermentation technology, ultrastructure, biotransformation, metabolism, enzymology, biomembranes, bioenergetics, physiology, cell biology, symbiosis, ecology, bioremediation, methodologies, evolution, phylogeny, taxonomy and others.
Issue no. 1 is the yearly “Reviews” issue, containing 17 critical and comprehensive review articles on many timely topics written by experts in the field. We hope that you will find this collection of articles interesting and stimulating.
All articles are freely available in 2012
