Researchers reveal therapeutic strategy to kill cancer cell
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
Gene mutations are the cause of cancer. Tumor suppressors and oncogenes are the two main groups of these altered genes in cancer. Mutations in oncogenes can drive cell proliferation, pushing the gas pedal all the way to the floor, whereas mutations in tumour suppressor genes can cause tumour
