Cancer and multiple sclerosis genetic treatment discovery
April 24th, 2009 by The Online Reporter
A new discovery has been made by a group of researchers at University of Edinburgh to slow down or stop diseases like multiple sclerosis and cancer.
This would be called a genetic treatment of cancer and the team found hundreds of genes interacting and they will now try to find weak spots to halt tumour growth.
Professor David Hume, of the university’s Roslin Institute, who led the research, said: “This study has effectively shown us where the brakes are which could slow down or stop diseases like cancer and multiple sclerosis.
Hopefully this discovery will become a huge milestone in cancer treatment sciences.
