They found in their groundbreaking tests on mice that the particles not only attached to cancer cells, but they also moved those cells. In what may well prove to be some of the most exciting health news in the year to come, the group announced in the journal Nanomedicine in December and further publicized on Tuesday that it has replicated the study on human cancer cells, with the nanoparticles appearing to be every bit as effective.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0027http:\/\/news.cnet.com\/8301-27083_3-10446292-247.html\u0027\u003EFull Article\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"In what may well prove to be some of the most exciting health news in the year to come, scientists in Georgia Tech\u0027s Ovarian Cancer Institute announced that it has replicated a 2008 animal study now on human cancer cells, with the nanoparticles appearing to be every bit as effective.","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Ovarian Cancer Institute Research Published in Nanoparticle"}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2010-02-03 01:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:06:11","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2010-02-02T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2010-02-02T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"56474":{"id":"56474","type":"image","title":"Magnetic Nanoparticles Attach to Human Cancer Cell","body":null,"created":"1449175653","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 20:47:33","changed":"1475894501","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:41:41","alt":"Magnetic Nanoparticles Attach to Human Cancer Cell","file":{"fid":"190482","name":"tyo62753.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/tyo62753_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/tyo62753_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":43715,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/tyo62753_0.jpg?itok=MYMl2Whi"}}},"media_ids":["56474"],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
