Protein HLJ1 slowing the progression lung cancer

An investigation identified a protein that may curb lung cancer. HLJ1 protein is involved in slowing the progression of lung cancer, the researchers said.
Scientists at the National Taiwan University (China) have concluded that a protein called HLJ1 could function as tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung cancer.

The study, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute was based on increasing or blocking HLJ1 expression in lung carcinoma cells, and gene expression observed in tumors and adjacent tissue cells in 71 patients with cancer NSCLC.

Bru, these cells are capable of exerting pressure on the tumor. Tumor cells pressurized first enter a quiescent state, which do not divide, and then die by necrosis.
