A new way to beat one of the most hard to pin down target proteins in cancer cells has been beaten by scientists by turning the protein's own molecular machinations against it. Researchers at Dana-Farber/Boston Children's Cancer and Blood Disorders Center used a specially crafted compound to disrupt the protein's ability to rev up its own production and that of other proteins involved in tumor cell growth. The result, in laboratory samples of neuroblastoma cancer ...Sunday 9 November 2014
Cancer Protein Turned Against Itself by Scientists
A new way to beat one of the most hard to pin down target proteins in cancer cells has been beaten by scientists by turning the protein's own molecular machinations against it. Researchers at Dana-Farber/Boston Children's Cancer and Blood Disorders Center used a specially crafted compound to disrupt the protein's ability to rev up its own production and that of other proteins involved in tumor cell growth.
