Calcium has been linked to breast cancer
Research from the University of Queensland (Australia) shows that calcium helps build strong bones but can also play a role in the development of breast cancer cells.
Dr. Won Jae Lee, a member of the research team, said that calcium-absorbing cells control many essential biological processes in the body and can support tumors to grow and metastasize. This mineral acts as a signaling molecule in the body and the signals that calcium sends to cells sometimes stimulate cancer to develop.
By inhibiting the signals sent by calcium, the researchers found that the development of breast cancer cells significantly decreased. Knowing how to control and control the signals transmitted by calcium can open a new treatment for breast cancer in the future.
