A new high-throughput device that measures the electrical properties of cancer cells through continuous flow electrorotation

 From Tokyo:

The electrical properties of cancer cells can provide information on their cancer type, state, and drug resistance. However, conventional platforms to measure these properties are complex and can only analyze a few cells. Researchers have successfully developed a high-throughput device that measures the electrical properties of cancer cells through continuous flow electrorotation. The new platform offers a high degree of automation and can simultaneously analyze several cells.

Tumor-destroying sound waves receive FDA approval for liver treatment in humans

 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of sound waves to break down tumors—a technique called histotripsy—in humans for liver treatment.


Pioneered at the University of Michigan, histotripsy offers a promising alternative to cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, which often have significant side effects. Today, FDA officials awarded clearance to HistoSonics, a company co-founded in 2009 by U-M engineers and doctors for the use of histotripsy to destroy targeted liver tissue.


A human trial underway since 2021 at the U-M Rogel Cancer Center and other locations has treated patients with primary and metastatic liver tumors via histotripsy, demonstrating the technology’s ability to meet the testing’s primary effectiveness and safety targets.

Optimization of tumor-treating field therapy for triple-negative breast cancer cells in vitro via frequency modulation

 Currently, tumor-treating field (TTField) therapy utilizes a single “optimal” frequency of electric fields to achieve maximal cell death in a targeted population of cells. However, because of differences in cell size, shape, and ploidy during mitosis, optimal electric field characteristics for universal maximal cell death may not exist. This study investigated the anti-mitotic effects of modulating electric field frequency as opposed to utilizing uniform electric fields.
