Artificial cells move like real cells

In a new video from ACS Central Science, researchers showcase how artificial cells move and act like human cells, all while delivering precision medicine throughout the body.

The lab-created cells imitate regular cells but have the capability to deliver medication to a specific spot and become replacements for cells and organs. Using enzymes, these cells are able to move like real cells. Researchers utilized computer modeling to determine the amount of enzyme needed to keep each cell moving. Using sugar as fuel, these cells are able to maintain their speed regardless of the supply.
