Mechanisms governing cancer development (Exome Sequencing)

The mechanisms underlying cancer resistance are largely unexplored. Here, we study the earliest stages of squamous cell carcinoma initiation in cancer-prone mice and cancer-resistant naked mole-rats.

癌症抵抗背后的机制在很大程度上尚未得到充分探索。在此，我们对易患癌症的小鼠以及癌症抵抗型裸鼹鼠（naked mole-rats）的鳞状细胞癌（squamous cell carcinoma）起始的最早期阶段展开研究。
