There are Smiling When Cancer Cells in Under the Microscope

Cancer cells are usually greatly feared because it can spread very quickly. But doctors in Australia found a form of cancer cells that are 'smiling' under the microscope.

Researchers in Sydney shocked and also surprised to observe proteins in cancer cells under a microscope. This is because the cancer proteins form a picture of a smiling face.

Scientists from the Westmead Millennium Institute for Medical Research created a protein from cancer 12 years ago as a material for studying how these proteins will develop into tumors in the human body.

But in one experiment that was conducted by researchers over the years, the proteins of these cancer cells develop a face like he was smiling.

We have never seen anything like this before, and those that exist in the laboratory are very pleased to see the picture, smiling.

Prof Henderson said he was researching something under a microscope and observe the proteins of developing cancer can be boring and cause eye strain. But this is so exciting when scientists found a smiley face underneath.

We all wondered what the underlying message of these and there are various ways to find out. You might think to laugh at us, but I think it's precisely our challenge.

In this study Professor Henderson and the team try to learn the behavior of a protein called beta-catenin with cancer-causing by moving into the cell nucleus and activate genes. This chain reaction will transform normal cells into tumor cells.

If he does not get into the cell nucleus it does not cause cancer. So we learn to figure out how to keep it does not go or stop the behavior so that it can prevent cancer.
