Researchers reprogram stem cells after radiation, lower cancer risk.

A University of Colorado study published in the journal Stem Cells has identified a program that makes stem cells damaged by radiation differentiate into other cells that can no longer survive forever. Radiation makes a stem cell lose its stem cell properties and the body has evolved ways to get rid of faulty stem cells.  In this way the human body avoids having damaged stem … Continue reading Researchers reprogram stem cells after radiation, lower cancer risk.
