Researchers Develop Groundbreaking Technology To Revert Cancer Cells Into Normal Cells

Unlike traditional cancer treatments, which primarily aim to kill tumor cells, a new approach aims to fight the disease by reprogramming cells. This means that cancer cells are not necessarily killed, but instead transformed back into “normally functioning” cells, which could reduce the risk of side effects and drug resistance.

Korean researchers find cancer undo button, turn tumor cells to normal ones

This is a significant departure from traditional cancer treatments that rely on killing cancer cells, often leading to severe side effects.

Researchers Develop Groundbreaking Technology To Revert Cancer Cells Into Normal Cells

The new approach offers a systematic way to reverse cancer cells to their normal state, potentially revolutionizing future treatments.

It has the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment: A method has been developed that can revert cancer cells back to their healthy state. Scientists who have achieved successful results in animal experiments hope to reduce the side effects of current treatments. Current cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, kill tumor cells to control the disease. However, this process also damages healthy cells, which makes the treatment painful. If succ…

Cancer treatment usually involves either killing dangerous cells with chemicals or removing the tumor. But now, for the first time, scientists have managed to “re-wire” cancer cells, returning them to normal cells. By working with a colon cancer cell line, Korean researchers have found a way to change the activity of genetic switches and make cells return to a healthy state. This technology is redefining the approach to... The post Cancer cells …

Breakthrough treatment flips cancer cells back into normal cells

Working with a line of colon cancer cells, Korean researchers figured out a way to throw a few genetic switches to cause the cells to revert back to a healthy state. The technique could have major implications in the way we approach cancer treatment.Continue ReadingCategory: Cancer, Illnesses and conditions, Body & MindTags: Cancer, KAIST, Genetic engineering, gene therapy, Cells, Tumors
