Scientists Just Discovered How to Starve Cancer with supporting medical studies
Researchers have developed a novel approach to “starve” cancer by using genetically modified fat cells that outcompete tumors for essential nutrients. A team led by Nadav Ahituv, PhD, at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), used CRISPR gene-editing to transform energy-storing white fat cells into energy-burning “beige” fat cells by activating the UCP1 gene. These engineered cells consume …
