Using a hormone called follistatin, that naturally occurs in the body, the scientists induced activin-A in the cells of humans and rats in the lab.

The researchers conducting the tests believes the research will open doors for a deeper and more successful way to suspend the suppression we see in the immune system in cancer.

The author of the research of Monash, Professor Nicholas Huntington says “The research can open new possibilities for drugs that can be novel and more effective in the battle of cancer.

The disease is spreading on such a wide level that according to experts, every second person that has been born after 1960 in the UK is going to suffer from cancer at some point in their life.
