Siberia scientists develop a new technology to treat cancer

Experts from the Institute of Cytology and Genetics in Novosibirsk have developed a technology that enables effective treatment of cancer, while reducing the number of chemotherapy doses many times.

This technology is based on "loopholes" of cancer stem cells at certain stages of their life cycle.

Within a few years, laboratory workers developed a technology called "Karanahan" ("destroying cause") . This technology is based on "loopholes" of cancer stem cells at certain stages of their life cycle.

"While studying malignant stem cells, our staff found their unique feature, the ability to capture extracellular DNA fragments. In-depth studies show, if implanted This DNA enters cells, after a period of time, under the action of cytotoxic drugs (chemotherapy), they do not allow cells to complete the recovery process and as a result the cells die " , inform know.

The Institute of Cytology and Genetics noted that the new technology was named "3 + 1" by the authors , because the first three doses of the drug were introduced into cells that could kill most cells. Original cancer, while the fourth dose destroys the remaining original cancer cells. This drug has been successfully tested to treat cancer in mice, as well as the neoplastic tumors of cultured people.
