Study identifies 'switch' that aids spread of breast cancer around body
Updated : 6 years, 11 months ago IST
Washington D.C. [USA], May 30 (ANI): A new study has identified a genetic 'switch' in breast cancer cells that facilitates the production of internal scaffolding, a type of protein called Keratin-80, which makes cancer cells more rigid and may make the cells travel in bloodstream to other
