The findings could potentially lead to new therapies and could stop the growth of cancers
Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists have revealed a molecular pathway that lures cells down a path of genome duplication, a hallmark of cancer cells, which could potentially lead to new therapies and could stop the growth of cancers.
Published in Science, the study reveals the consequences of molecules and enzymes triggering and regulating the process of making new cells out of the cells’ genetic material.
Cells follow an orderly routine that begins with making a copy of their entire genome, followed by separating the genome copies and dividing the replicated DNA evenly into two “daughter” cells.
When doing so, cells that are stressed can mistakenly run...
