Humans developed a treatment for deadly cancer using the stem cells over the affected cancer cells.
To get the development of the treatment using stem cells, we need to know about cancer and stem cells. A cancer is an uncontrolled proliferation of cells. The cancer cells are under division constantly. The cells of the cancer divide in a specific type. There are millions of cancerous cells in a tumor but the fact is all the cancer cells originate from a single cell. In other words all the cancer cells are called clones of each other.

Due to this, the cells have a slight growth over the other dividing cells in the tissue. This cell develops a clone cell of the suppressor cell and induces mutation in other cell cycle deregulating it. These mutated now undergo mitosis in all the cells, which damages the DNA, present in other cells.

In case of cancer primarily the cells starts to divide and form a tumor at a particular location. The cancer cells have a property of never showing inhibitio
