Researchers Are On The TRAIL To Killing Cancer With Genetically-Engineered Adult Stem Cells

Posted on May 21, 2009 by Paul Cacciatore

“Researchers in London have demonstrated the ability of adult stem cells from bone marrow (mesenchymal stem cells, or MSCs) to deliver a cancer-killing protein to tumors.  The genetically engineered stem cells are able to home to the cancer cells, both in culture and in mouse models, and deliver TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), destroying the tumor cells while sparing normal cells. …”
