How do viruses kill cancer cells?
Viruses can be engineered to specifically target and infect cancer cells, causing them to die. Some viruses can also stimulate the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells. Additionally, certain viruses have the ability to directly interfere with the replication process of cancer cells, leading to their death.
What is virotherapy and how does it work?
Virotherapy is a type of treatment that uses viruses to target and kill cancer cells. The viruses are modified to selectively infect and destroy cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed. Once inside the cancer cells, the viruses replicate and cause the cells to burst, ultimately leading to the death of the cancer cells.
What are oncolytic viruses?
Oncolytic viruses are viruses used in cancer treatment. They kill these viruses through chemical means in multiple stages by attacking infected cells.
Can viruses kill cells?
Yes. Viruses' only aim is to reproduce; if they invade a cell and are not killed off, they will continue replicating themselves until the cell bursts.
Why do antibodies work to kill bacteria but not viruses?
bacteria is complit cell or contain cellular material hence specific antibody riquar as compair to virus is difrance
how are new viruses produced How might this process cause harm to the infected cell?
All viruses kill they cells that they infect. If not right away then later.
Could the zombie apocalypse actually happen?
Nobody really knows, but there are really bad viruses that can kill a lot of people.
How do you use gamma rays to kill cancer cell?
You have to put the source (usually cobalt) right next to (or inside of) the cancer cells.
What is licing a cancer cell during chemotherapy?
Lysing a cancer cell during chemotherapy refers to the destruction or breakdown of the cancer cell membrane, leading to cell death. Chemotherapy drugs are designed to target and kill fast-growing cancer cells by interfering with their ability to divide and grow. Lysing cancer cells is a key mechanism by which chemotherapy works to shrink tumors and control cancer growth.
Why do viruses risk killing a host. is it not more efficient to have sustained reproduction by keeping the host alive?
this is the way that evolution have worket.In any way their are many type of viruses thay dont kill the host cell for example lysogenic bacteiophages, or HPV.human papiloma virus it doesent kill host cell but it force them to divide and most of cell will be carcinogenic.
What is a cancer cell?
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth and division of cells. It can kill an organism by crowding out of normal cells, resulting in the lose of tissue. The main causes of cancer are environmental factors.
Does Bacteria have viruses?
Yes, bacteria can be infected by viruses called bacteriophages. Bacteriophages are specific to infecting bacteria and can inject their genetic material into a bacterial cell, causing it to replicate and produce more viruses. This process eventually leads to the lysis, or bursting, of the bacterial cell, releasing more viruses to infect other bacteria.
