This project explores cancer treatment by utilizing Drosophila as a model organism to study tumor growth and genetic changes. It aims to identify new intervention strategies and understand the role of chromosomal instability in cancer development, potentially leading to advancements in human health.
Despite significant advance, cancer treatment remains suboptimal.
Anatomical and physiological differences between humans and simple model organisms like Drosophila are many and major, and preclude the modelling of key aspects of the disease as it proceeds in vertebrates.
However, malignant tumors in vertebrates and flies are made of cells that have derailed from their normal course of development, grow out of control, become immortal, invasive, and kill the host.
Moreover, like most solid human…
