South Korean scientists have said they have developed a new genetically altered strain of virus which is highly efficient in targeting and killing cancer cells.
The new therapy developed by the team from Yonsei University uses a genetically-engineered form of the adenovirus, which normally causes colds.
The adenovirus was implanted with a human gene that is related to the production of relaxin, a hormone associated with pregnancy. When injected into cancerous tumors, the virus quickly multiplies in the cancer cells and kills them, the team said.
The new adenovirus can target only cancer cells and does not harm normal cells, the team said. Existing viral treatments fail to kill off all the cancerous cells.
"I believe we have found a way to overcome one of the great obstacles to finding a genetically altered viral cure for cancer," Yun Chae-Ok, one of the researchers, told AFP on Thursday.
Following three rounds of injections, more than 90 percent of cancer cells in the brains, liver, lungs and womb of mice disappeared within 60 days, the team said.
Clinical tests will be carried out early next year and last 18 months, Yun said.
The research results were published in the October 18 edition of the prestigious bimonthly Journal of the National Cancer Institute in the United States.
I sense that a cure for all cancers was developed quite some time ago. However, if these cures are adminstered to the general public of the world in which we all live at the moment, then the total collaspe of the global cancer industry will run into billions and billions of all money currencies....whicjh the governments of the world will never forgive. Remember, AIDS was procreated in a lab..........
AIDS wasn't created in a lab, it's been found in monkeys for a long, long time.
Man is the master..........man injected the monkeys to see the effects of AIDS...........then dispersed the condition throughout Africa..............imho...........
