killler t cells kill them
Hyperthermia is an increase in the core body cells. Our cells can only function at certain temperature ranges. Hyperthermia is a relatively new treatment for cancer cells where therapy can be targeted to protect healthy cells. At 113 degrees, cancer cells are arrested.
Not exactly, because over 50% of the world's population smoke somthing. When you smoke tobacco it can kill some cells in the body. When you kill some of these cells it can cause you to get many symptoms such as LUNG CANCER, MOUTH CANCER, and it can also make your voice change very badly, and if you continue to smoke it will cause you to lose your voice permanatly.
White blood cells that directly destroy virus-infected and cancerous cells are called?
The cancer cell must be able to:Be self sufficient in terms of growth signals (It needs to tell itself to grow)It needs to ignore anti-growth signalsIt needs to be able to move around the body and form new tumorsIt needs to be able to replicate indefinitelyIt needs to stimulate the growth of blood vessels from neighboring tissue to the tumorIt needs to evade apoptosis (Cell death)
they spot infected cells and kill them, basically.
It is the inserting of a virus that is capable to kill the cancer cells. This virus does not kill the healthy cells.
An Oncologist Oncologists are physicians that treat, diagnose, and study cancerous tumors. There are many different types of oncologist. A clinical oncologist is a doctor who treats people with cancer. In most cases, when a person is diagnosed with cancer, a clinical oncologist takes charge of his or her care and treatment through all phases of the disease. A medical oncologist specializes in treating cancer with chemotherapy (the use of drugs to kill cancer cells) A surgical oncologist specializes in the surgical aspects of cancer, including a biopsy (the removal of a small amount of tissue for examination under a microscope) and surgically removing the cancer. A radiation oncologist specializes in treating cancer with radiation therapy (the use of high-energy x-rays to destroy cancer cells). A gynecologic oncologist focuses on the care and treatment of women with gynecologic cancers, such as uterine cancer and cervical cancer.A pediatric oncologist specializes in the treatment of children with cancer and includes all three primary oncology disciplines listed above in the care of their young patients.oncologistsa oncologist would treat youA doctor who studies and/or treats cancer is called an "oncologist."
cancer is defined as the numerous growth of harmful cells.so they kill the remaining healthy protecting cells,in this way they kill most of them.they even stop the reproduction of new cells and kill them if they reproduce.

A chemotherapeutic drug used to treat cancer must be more toxic to cancer cells (at least, to the cancer cells of the specific type of cancer which it is intended to treat) than it is to the healthy cells of the body. Otherwise, you could only kill the cancer by also killing the patient.
Small interfering RNA molecules can kill cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of oncogenes which give the cancer cells their cancerous properties.
Cancer kills an organism by destroying the red blood cells.
I heard that peaches and plums can kill breast cancer cells :)
Radiation has the capacity to kill cells, both cancer cells and normal cells, but cancer cells are less healthy than normal cells, and they are more easily killed, so radiation can kill cancer cells while not killing the patient (although the patient will suffer side effects). Doctors are always looking for what is known as the "magic bullet" which is something that kills only cancer cells but does not harm normal cells; so far we have not found it. If we do invent a magic bullet, than radiation treatments will no longer be used.
No, it can't, not to my knowledge anyway. cancer is a mutation of healthy cells into cancerous cells. its not a virus or bacteria that is foreign to the body. it is a mutation of your body. I may be remembering my info wrong though
Samarium doesn't kill cancer cells. A radioactive isotope of samarium (samarium-153) is used in a chemotherapy agent, but it's the radiation, not the samarium, that kills the cancer cells.
Yes
