Breakthrough - Scientists Discovered a “Kill Switch” That Destroys Any Cancer Cell

Scientists Discovered a “Kill Switch” That Destroys Any Cancer Cell

SUICIDE MOLECULES

A new study has established that RNA molecules, originally developed as a means of studying genes, can trigger a hidden mechanism that prompts cells to commit suicide. Some scientists believe that this could be used as a new method of cancer treatment.

“It’s like committing suicide by stabbing yourself, shooting yourself and jumping off a building all at the same time...You cannot survive.”

Peter and his team found sequences in the human genome that possess this capability when converted into small double-stranded RNA molecules. It’s thought that the mechanism is an ancient technique that cells used to eliminate cancer before the advent of the adaptive immune system, many millions of years ago.

Peter found that small interfering RNAs were capable of killing cancer cells, as well as fulfilling their intended purpose of suppressing gene activity. All the genes necessary for cell survival are eliminated, with very little effect on normal cells.

“Our research may be tapping into one of nature’s original kill switches, and we hope the impact will affect many cancers,” said Peter. “Our findings could be disruptive.”

This is a very interesting research study and after reading this and watching the video begged me to question what Peter meant by “Our findings could be disruptive.”? Maybe disruptive to Big Pharma and their profiteering of drugs that treat but not cure?

If this does happen to make it past all the legal battles in curing cancer there is going to be a big war who owns this technology to either make it public or keep it in "study" mode until the technology completely disappears and drugs are kept being pushed onto us.

A breakthrough in research so better keep our eyes on how this develops and hopefully the only thing that will be disrupted will be the proliferation of cancer in our bodies.

Big pharma's working on an illness...

Absolutely correct.

It's about time they provide the cure to some of these designed illnesses.
Then Let people get healthy again for a few years, then introduce the next biggest species killing disease allow that wreak havoc.

HOW about ENFORCING scientific RESEARCH practices,to start?
WAIT ,then they couldn't FUDGE their data ...

A silver bullet for all cancer types given chemical warfare I've always doubted, but biological warfare now that might just be possible.

Our research may be tapping into one of nature’s original kill switches, and we hope the impact will affect many cancers,” said Peter. “Our findings could be disruptive.”

When Peter and his research team start to die off in the near future, then I’ll believe this...

Lets hope this research isn't killed by big Pharma and other behind the scene power brokers. Keep your ears open for any researchers related to this "kill switch" discovery committing suicide or dying in a traffic accident. How many promising cures have ended up fading away into the wind? The development of free energy technology, cures for cancer and other illnesses are all a huge threat to big corporate players.

Screw laboratory trials, human trials should start ASAP for those poor cancer patients who have lost all hope and are on death's door. A cancer patient signing a simple liability waver should easily protect hospital's from any possible law suits. Cancer has become an epidemic and too many children and young people are dying because of this evil disease.

That Kill switch isn't just in the cancer cell, it's in all cells.

How do you make it just selective to that one type of cancer cell and not any others around it?

It's going to be a long while with this research.

PS - With all the people yelling "Big Pharma - Insert Conspiracy", with all the power you claim they have...they allowed this "major" break through just to slip through without shutting it down? Hmmmm.

That is great news and yes I wonder if we will ever see this used to save people's lives.. since it kills cells I do wonder how they can identify cancer cells for targeting only ?

Off topic.. My wife's cousin came to the house last week.. Her right arm was twice the size of her left arm... Her right breast was hard as a rock..the left breast was normal with no tenderness.. I asked her if she had been to the doctor and she said no but she was thinking about it... I told her to go tomorrow and she promised she would.. My opinion was she has advanced cancer but I did not say that to her..

She went the next day and they ended up sending her to a specialist.. He removed three tumors from her breast and sent her home.. At first I was kinda mad so I talked to a doctor friend who called the treating physician... His report to me was the cancer had spread to her bones and was not only in her arm and breast but was also in her pelvic area.

Long story short they sent her home to die instead of causing pain and suffering with treatment and trying to leech all the money from her and her family.. I can only imagine what would have happened to her in the states and my imagination about the medical establishment in the states is pretty vivid..

She will be dead in the next 3 months (if not sooner) IMO for food is already tasting bad and she has started throwing up.. Oh she is only38 years old

Good news the Doctors told her if the pain gets bad they would give her drugs (morphine seems to be the drug of choice) ...

Friends and family have been stopping by her home daily checking on her and providing companionship..

Cancer is already curable in most forms.

Human greed to keep that suppressed, is not.

Bro...


sent her off to die instead of making it worse?


No wonder America has to save this stupid World over and over again. Really bothered by your post.

Pharmacutical grade sodium bicarbonate....or baking soda.....not some hokey convoluted big pharm story.

The doctor committed a HIPAA violation FYI

turmeric, specifically when combined with piperine (found in black pepper) is a strong anti-cancer agent

They do not have HIPAA in this country along with many other things...

Yes the story bothered me too. She is a friend and a great hard working girl..

I was mad at them sending her home and not doing something to save her life I suppose since/because I grew up in America.. However after the shock and frustration wore off I then thought; I had a wife die of cancer after all the medical B.S. and pain money could buy.. Stage 4 usually means 18 months or less..

At least the cousin will not have to be used as a lab rat and her estate go into bankruptcy trying to pay for a treatment that has little chance of success due to her advanced stage of the disease ..

The doctors (specialist) said she was to far gone and would be dead in three months.. They will make her as comfortable as possible which is good..

A hard pill to swallow for me and the family but that is the way things are going to be as far as the Doctors are concerned..

You're right on the first line.

We do have the drugs and chems to kill a lot of different cancer forms, unfortunately those same drugs are also extraordinary lethal to the human body in the dosages that are required to kill the cancer.

It's one of the main reason we are making vectors that such as encapsulating the drug or chemical into a nano particle etc so it can be placed directly in the cancer and burst open, or be eaten by that tumor/cancer cell.

Don't get me wrong on the pharmaceutical companies - they're lying, money grabbing profiteers that will do and sell anything to get their money, including selling HIV blood or vials of spinal steroids that are contaminated with fungus etc etc.

I just don't believe the full scope of the power people claim of them (Cure of all cancers etc).

Pin worm medicine is supposedly a real cancer cure. That and I heard black walnut tincture. I take it weekly, who knows? Maybe it will keep cancer at bay.

Having worked in this area a little (something to do with the BRCA 1 and 2 mutations that cause breast cancer in some cases)... the Synthtetic lethal interactions they will target, are specific to that cancer.

This is not new Science. However (and I seem to say this to people a LOT). You are not going to get a magic bullet that wipes out all cancers. You will get a series of bullets that will work for specific cancers, or perhaps a small group of them (depending on the mutation involved).

Basically different cancers have different causes. thus no one cure.

is there a recipe for that?

a reply to: cavtrooper7

We fudge our data do we? Wow I better start doing that, after all you said we do that. /sarc

When you actually work in the industry, get back to me.
