Toxin-secreting Stem Cells to Treat Brain Tumors Engineered

A novel way to use stem cells in the fight against brain cancer has been devised by Harvard Stem Cell Institute scientists. A team led by neuroscientist Khalid Shah, MS, PhD, who recently demonstrated the value of stem cells loaded with cancer-killing herpes viruses, now has a way to genetically engineer stem cells so that they can produce and secrete tumor-killing toxins. In the AlphaMed Press journal emSTEM CELLS/em, Shah's team shows how the toxin-secreting ...
