Scientists Find Cancer Drug Claims

So far, medical teams rely on chemotherapy to kill cancer cells. Only, in this way often do not work well on all patients, regardless of side effects. But now, some scientists claim to find more effective cancer drugs with less side effects than chemotherapy.

Scientists from the Institute of Cancer Research in London that claims to have found a way to kill various types of cancer cells that eats away at the breast, lung, and prostate.

They began their study by analyzing the workings of chemotherapy to kill cancer cells. They found that chemotherapy is very toxic and can be harmful to DNA. While chemotherapy may not work well with certain people.

After the chemotherapy drugs damage the DNA of cells, these cells produce proteins that trigger cell death. Death can occur in two ways apoptosi suicide or secretly, and necroptosis or death of more irregular cells.

Many cancer cells against death through apoptosis. By creating drugs that can lead to death necroptosis, cancer cells can be killed. "This finding is a new way to combat cancer," said study author Professor Patrick Meier, quoted by the Daily Mail.

This discovery also suggests that chemotherapy drugs work against not only cancer but also creates a mixture of proteins that lead to his death.
