On September 21, scientists at the Korean Cancer Center discovered the “sumo” gene in the human body, which has the potential to prevent the development of cancer.
In their research findings, the Korean scientists indicated a direct correlation between the “sumo” gene and the stability of chromosomes. The absence of this gene increases the likelihood of chromosomal instability, which can lead to the formation of malignant tumors.
This discovery is considered a breakthrough in cancer research and plays a crucial role in the development of non-toxic drugs for the effective treatment of this deadly disease.
However, the Korean researchers remain cautious, stating that further interdisciplinary studies are needed, and it will take many more years before science can formulate effective cancer treatment pharmaceuticals.
