Study finds details on molecular mechanism that prevents cancer
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
Apoptosis is essential for human life, and its disruption can cause cancerous cells to grow and not respond to cancer treatment. In healthy cells, it is regulated by two proteins with opposing roles known as Bax and Bcl-2. The study was published in 'Science Advances'.
