According to researchers, they prevent the growth of cancer cells

A new type of therapy can help to effectively treat breast cancer, reported biologists from the University of Aberdeen. It's about the application of the specific type of antibody IgNAR (immunoglobulin new antigen receptor), which are found in cartilage fish - such as sharks. According to researchers unique antibody can prevent the growth of cancer cells.

Over the next three years is to provide a number of studies that confirm the theory and help to create a cure for the most common malignancy in women location. Scientists will focus on the two molecules - HER2 and HER3, which are arranged on the surface of cancer cells. When these molecules are combined, the cancer cells receive signals for growth and division. According to researchers IgNAR can stop the transmission of the signal and to prevent progression of the disease.
