Toward nanoscopic medicine
Tóm tắt
The cell, as the origin of health and disease, can be considered as a network of nanoscopic elements embedded in a microcosm of membrane-bounded compartments. Among nanoscopic elements, protein complexes stand out, because they initiate and direct all cellular processes. Striking progress in proteomics, molecular imaging and fluorescence nanoscopy induce me to envision a “Nanoscopic Medicine”, i.e. the direct imaging, functional analysis and repair of protein complexes and other nanoscopic elements. Here, I will discuss the fundament, requirements and prospects of nanoscopic medicine.
