研究人员发现,用Bestatin阻塞CPN2酶会显著减缓肿瘤的生长。 Researchers discover that blocking enzyme CNDP2 with bestatin significantly slows tumor growth.

纽约大学的研究人员发现,癌症细胞合作收集养分,特别是在资源稀缺的情况下,秘密使用一种叫做全国保卫人民大会2的酶,将蛋白质碎片分解成氨基酸。 Researchers at New York University found that cancer cells cooperate to gather nutrients, especially when resources are scarce, by secreting an enzyme called CNDP2 to break down protein fragments into amino acids. 用一种名为贝斯的药物阻断CNDP2显著减少瘤生长. Blocking CNDP2 with a drug named bestatin significantly reduces tumor growth. 这项发现表明,以癌症细胞的合作行为为目标,可能导致新的、有效的癌症治疗。 This discovery suggests that targeting the cooperative behavior of cancer cells could lead to new, effective cancer treatments.
