One reason for this is a group of persisting cancer cells in the colon that cause relapses, with conventional therapies against them mostly ineffective.  Now, a study from researchers at EPFL and Kyoto University has identified a biological mechanism that can be exploited to counteract colon cancer relapses. The team state … Continue reading Researchers use vitamin A to prevent relapsing colon cancer.
