Researchers technical design that could help develop better cancer treatments

Washington D.C. – Analysts for a recent study, designed a pioneering technique for the treatment of cancer.

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh Analyzes genes from anonymous medical databases of tumors to identify genes associated with immune cells. The findings of the study are published in the Journal of Cancer Immunology Research.

Scientists said that the approach could be used to help patients choose the best treatments for individual patients and predict which tumors are likely to respond to a particular therapy.

It could also help the use of immunotherapy – a new form of treatment that uses the body's own defenses to tackle cancer. This therapy has proven to be a great promise in recent

The new approach – based on gene analysis – makes it easier to spot the range of immune cells present in a tumor. These cells could help the body detect and kill cancer when activated by certain drugs, scientists say.

Traditional treatments, such as radiology, often do not discriminate between cells and attack both cancerous and healthy cells, often leading to side-effects.

A source called ImSig – paints the best picture of tumors to date and will allow scientists to study how certain immune cell types affect cancer growth.
