Protein And MicroRNA Block Cellular Transition Vital To Metastasis - QualityPoint Technologies

qualitypointtech.net — “Like a bounty hunter returning escapees to custody, a cancer-fighting gene converts organ cells that change into highly mobile stem cells back to their original, stationary state, researchers report online at Nature Cell Biology. This newly discovered activity of the p53 gene offers a potential avenue of attack on breast cancer stem cells thought to play a central role in progression and spread of the disease, according to scientists at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center...” View full resource at qualitypointtech.net
