转移是肿瘤细胞常常用以形成恶性癌症组织的策略,肿瘤转移往往会导致患者较差的预后,而设法阻断肿瘤的转移或者抑制恶性肿瘤组织的形成则是抵御癌症的一种新思路。近日,来自鲁汶大学的研究人员通过研究成功地在小鼠体内实现了抑制肿瘤转移的目的,相关研究成果刊登在了国际杂志Cell Reports上。研究者Pierre Sonveaux的研究小组通过研究发现了一种新型的药物化合物可以有效阻断肿瘤的转移,而正是由于研究人员对肿瘤细胞线粒体的深入研究才获得了如今的研究结果,线粒体是细胞的能量工厂,当肿瘤细胞中线粒体的功能发生改变时就会促进细胞的迁移,最终导致肿瘤
Metastasis is a strategy that tumor cells often use to form malignant cancer tissues. Tumor metastasis often leads to poor prognosis of patients. Trying to block the metastasis of tumors or inhibit the formation of malignant tumors is a new way to resist cancer. Recently, researchers from the University of Leuven have successfully achieved the goal of suppressing tumor metastasis in mice. The relevant research results were published in the international magazine Cell Reports. Researcher Pierre Sonveaux’s research team found that a novel drug compound can effectively block the metastasis of tumors. It was precisely because researchers conducted in-depth studies of the mitochondria of tumor cells that they obtained the results of today’s research. The mitochondria are cells. The energy plant will promote cell migration when the function of mitochondria in tumor cells changes, eventually leading to tumors.
