Scientists in Korea Make Cancer Cells Revert to Healthy State

Korean scientists at KAIST, led by Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho, have developed a groundbreaking method to revert cancer cells to normal without destroying them, marking a major shift in treatment.

Details:

  • The team created a digital twin of gene networks to identify and manipulate molecular switches, successfully reversing colon cancer cells to normal through testing and trials

  • Using computational modeling, they found that cancer cells regress along a differentiation path, developing a method to reverse this process and target cancer’s root cause

  • The research, extending beyond colon cancer, also applied digital modeling to study brain regulators, suggesting potential for targeted therapies across cancer types with minimal side effects

Published in Advanced Science, this approach introduces reversible cancer therapy, offering hope for more effective, less harmful treatments and a potential shift in oncology.
