Re: new way to get breast cancer stem cells to become sensitive to treatment discover

Quote:
"We believe we have found a crucial 'Achilles heel' in breast cancer stem cells. We can almost completely shut down their ability to spread the disease through the body through secondary tumours. Our success with repeat treatments is also important, offering hope that we can reduce relapse rates of the disease.

"These are very promising results but so far we have only seen this method work on cells in the laboratory.
Use of my dream word Achilles heel.

a combined TRAIL/FLIPi therapy could prevent metastatic disease progression in a broad range of breast cancer subtypes.
A common Achilles heel instead of chasing endless permutations and subtypes.

Maybe you get more fundamentally destructive approaches when you put a hockey player in a lab.

Now..could it be advanced more quickly if tested against 3D human tumor samples in Nagourney or Weisenthal's lab?
