New treatment approach inspired by how cancer cells evade immune defenses: Study ANI | Updated: Jan 02, 2021 23:05 IST Washington [US], January 2 (ANI): During recent study scientists have discovered how immune defences are evaded by cancerous cells, leading to a new treatment approach towards the treatment of the disease. Cancer cells are known for spreading genetic chaos. As cancer cells divide, DNA segments and even whole chromosomes can be duplicated, mutated, or lost altogether. This is called chromosomal instability, and scientists at Memorial Sloan...

Cancer cells are known for spreading genetic chaos. As cancer cells divide, DNA segments and even whole chromosomes can be duplicated, mutated, or lost altogether. This is called chromosomal instability, and scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering have learned that it is associated with cancer's aggressiveness.

Knowing How Cancer Cells Avoid Defenses Open Gates for New Therapy by Angela Mohan on  December 29, 2020 at 7:18 PM Cancer Discovery. Cells interpret these rogue bits of DNA as evidence of viral invaders, which sets off their internal alarm bells and leads to inflammation. Immune cells travel to the site of the tumor and churn out defensive chemicals. A mystery has been why this immune reaction, triggered by the cancer cells, does not spell their downfall. "The elephant in the room is that we didn't really understand how cancer cells were able to survive and thrive in this ...

 E-Mail Cancer cells are known for spreading genetic chaos. As cancer cells divide, DNA segments and even whole chromosomes can be duplicated, mutated, or lost altogether. This is called chromosomal instability, and scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering have learned that it is associated with cancer's aggressiveness. The more unstable chromosomes are, the more likely that bits of DNA from these chromosomes will end up where they don't belong: outside of a cell's central nucleus and floating in the cytoplasm. Cells interpret these rogue bits of DNA as evidence of viral invaders, which sets o...
