Cancer: Survival pathways meet their end
Frank McCormick1
Abstract
Conventional chemotherapeutic approaches to treating tumours can be hit-and-miss. One way to ensure successful treatment may be to go for the jugular of cancer-cell survival signalling as well.
Chemotherapy uses powerful drugs designed to induce cancer cells to commit suicide. So why don't all tumours succumb to these drugs?
