Re-engineering cancerous tumors to self-destruct and kill drug-resistant cells
Researchers have found a way to reprogram disease evolution and design tumors that are easier to treat. They created a modular genetic circuit that turns cancer cells into a 'Trojan horse,' causing them to self-destruct and kill nearby drug-resistant cancer cells -- a novel way to address cancer's inherent diversity and heterogeneity. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/07/240704122217.htm
