抗癌心觀念(2)治療篇A new type of anti-cancer technology

Article Details

Currently, the most common treatments for cancer both in Taiwan and worldwide, involve chemo-therapy and radiation therapy. However, such methods are most often, only effective for patients, with early-stage cancer, and will also kill off healthy cells in the body. Thus, the medical profession, has long sought to develop a treatment, which only targets cancer cells, without harming normal cells. In this direction, the Academia Si-ni-ca have recently developed, a new type of anti-cancer technology, whereby sugar molecules, from the surface of cancer cells, are syn-the-sized into anti-gens. Such anti-gens then allow the body’s immune system, to produce anti-bodies which can fight off cancerous cells.

國內外醫院的癌症療法，以放射線和化學治療為主，但往往只對早期病患有顯著療效，因為這些療法會同時消滅正常細胞和癌細胞，因此醫學界一直想找出只消滅癌細胞，而不影響正常細胞的方法。抗癌技術最近出現新曙光，中研院發現癌細胞上有特定的醣分子，合成出的這些醣分子，能找到人體對抗癌細胞的抗體。
