Small interfering RNA molecules can kill cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of oncogenes which give the cancer cells their cancerous properties.
they multiply out of control and kill lots of people every year.
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.
Amino acids provide the building blocks for proteins in the body and are necessary for overall health and cell function. However, there is no scientific evidence to suggest that amino acids have the ability to selectively kill cancer cells. Cancer treatment typically involves a combination of therapies such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy.
Radiation treatments use high-energy beams to target and kill cancer cells. The goal is to damage the DNA of the cancer cells to prevent them from growing and spreading. Radiation therapy may be used alone or in combination with other treatments like surgery or chemotherapy.
Cytotoxic refers to substances or processes that are toxic to cells, typically targeting and destroying them. In the context of cancer treatment, cytotoxic drugs or therapies are used to kill rapidly dividing cancer cells.
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.
I heard that peaches and plums can kill breast cancer cells :)
Cancer kills an organism by destroying the red blood cells.
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
chemotherapy
Californium
no
I have no idea what kind of cell kills cancer cells. Why do you think i asked the question?
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
Ionizing radiation, such as X-rays and gamma rays, are used in radiation therapy to kill cancer cells. These high-energy electromagnetic waves can damage the DNA within cancer cells, preventing them from dividing and growing.
No, it is a form of cancer treatment which uses toxic chemicals to kill cancer cells.
