Scientists discover a molecular switch to reverse cancer

Scientists discover a molecular switch to reverse cancer

Cancer sometimes creeps in slowly, other times it bursts onto the scene without much warning. Either way, the disease hijacks the instructions that tell our cells how to behave, turning helpful teammates into troublemakers. For decades, oncology has focused on destroying those unruly cells. A new line of work asks a different question: what if we could push them back …
