When the compounds interact with cancer cells, they trigger programmed cell death, that is, apoptosis.
Scientists conducted a study in which they treated four cancer cells and two healthy cells by synthesizing nine compounds; As a result, they were able to select three effective compounds that actively affected cancer cells without affecting healthy cells that were sensitive to chemotherapy.
Scientists also conducted a study on mice; Here it turns out that the compounds can trigger the self-destruction of cancer cells.
Research into the drug’s effect on genetic mutations continues.
We need to wait for good results and wider patient access to this technology.
