Stem cells give clues to understanding cance

Researchers in Switzerland are uncovering new clues about how cancer cells grow and how they can be killed by studying stem cells, blank cells that have the potential to develop into fully mature or differentiated cells and other researchers in UK have made a breakthrough in understanding the cause of the most common profile of childhood cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). The research should lead to less aggressive therapy for the disease and could outcome in the development of new and more effective drugs, an universal conference on stem cell biology was told last month……..
