A new weapon against one of the deadliest cancers?
(WorldNews Europe)

Aggressive brain tumour cells taken from patients were found to self-destruct after being exposed by to a chemical in laboratory tests by researchers. The study could be the first step in tackling cancers such as glioblastoma, which led to Dame Tessa Jowell`s death earlier this year. The research, led by the University of Leeds, found that the synthetic chemical, named KHS101, was able to cut the energy source of tumour cells from glioblastoma, leading to the death of the cells. Published in Science Translational Medicine, the research represents an important step forward in tackling this disease, which is one of the deadliest cancers, with a five-year survival rate of less than­five per...
