Researchers Discover Key clue to What Causes Cancer |

Adelaide, Australia...Australian cancer researchers have made an important new connection between a person’s cancer risk and the functions of circular RNAs, a recently discovered family of genetic fragments present within our cells. A new Flinders University-led study published in Cancer Cell, one of the world’s top cancer journals, finds that specific circular RNAs within many of us can stick to the DNA in our cells and cause DNA mutations which result in cancer.
Husband and wife Professor Simon Conn and Dr Vanessa Conn’s team at the Flinders Centre for Innovation in Cancer has been researching the role of circular RNAs in DNA damage and forming cancer genes. Photo courtesy Flinders Foundation. |
