Cells in the human body accumulate cancer-promoting mutations throughout their lifespan, yet these mutations rarely drive tumour formation. Tumours in a given tissue usually originate from a specific ...

Researchers explained to TPS-IL that the same genetic machinery that allows tumors to grow at extremely high speed may also damage their DNA, exposing new vulnerabilities for future treatments.

The review emphasizes how breakthroughs in understanding the molecular mechanisms of cell cycle regulation have paved the way for the development of targeted anti-cancer agents. Notably, inhibitors of ...
