Yorkshire Cancer Research Laboratory, York University (UK) has just studied a new method to take advantage of glowing cells in jellyfish to diagnose cancer in deep areas of the body.

This diagnostic method is carried out by taking the green fluorescent protein (GFP) of glowing cells in jellyfish into human cancer cells.
When organizing glowing cells, it is possible to check the degree of light changes of green fluorescent proteins through special cameras, thereby finding the location of the tumor.
Professor Norman Maitland, in charge of the research team, said the discovery will completely change the way a number of cancers are diagnosed.
Cancer in deep areas of the body is difficult to detect early. Regardless of the type of cancer, early diagnosis is critical to successful treatment.
