מחקר ישראלי-גרמני חושף מסלול חדש להבנת סרטן

הערכה

The discovery gives cancer researchers a new angle on p53, a protein already central to the field. Instead of only policing damaged cells, it appears to regulate the raw materials for DNA replication. That link between metabolism and genetic damage could open fresh avenues for diagnosis or treatment. The next step is testing whether this RNA overproduction is targetable in human tumors.
