A breakthrough that could change the future of pediatric cancer treatment. Researchers, led by @DvelaMoran at @BarIlanU have uncovered a biological mechanism that helps aggressive cancer cells survive and spread and have already identified a compound that may be able to stop it. The discovery focuses on DIPG, one of the deadliest and currently incurable childhood brain cancers. In laboratory testing, the compound slowed and even halted the growth of these aggressive cancer cells, opening a promising new avenue for future treatments. 🇮🇱🔬 Click the link in our bio to learn more.
