Scientists finds a method that might work against all types of cancers in humans. They successfully tested the method in mice to kill tumors and initiate long-lasting anti-cancer immunity.
About 30 years ago, scientists at the Baylor College of Medicine in Texas discovered a family of genes called steroid receptor coactivators . In a recently published study, a team of researchers from BCM claims that deleting SRC-3 from animal immunity cells leads to the death of tumors and provides long-lasting protection from cancer.
that affect humans. The gene is expressed in Tregs , immune cells that prevent autoimmune disorders by suppressing our body’s immune response.Tregs are known to carry many SRC-3 genes and play a significant role in shaping the immune response against cancer.
Interestingly, when they transferred Tregs lacking SRC-3 genes in another group of mice with breast cancer andThey noticed that the modified T-cells released chemicals that performed two functions. First, they allowed natural killer cells and T-cells to attack the tumor directly. Second, they prevent other immune cells from supporting cancer growth and blocking anti-cancer activity while the tumors are being killed.
