Studies on mice may reveal why some are more suspectible to carcinogens...

Interesting studies are being done on why organ injury and carcingens can be more potent in some mice with MIC-1 depletion.Also, GDF 14/15 may regulate parenchymal cell proliferation after tissue injury and the cytokine inflammatory response. Such studies give interesting ideas why some individuals may get cancer when others don't.
