The same molecule that cause Huntington’s disease has been found to have remarkable cancer-killing properties. Huntington’s disease is caused by a mutation that repeats RNA sequences within genes. Research shows that the same mutated molecules were found to be cancer-killing assassins that evolved in living organisms millions of years ago to fight cancer before the more complex adaptive immune system was developed. Scientists say this discovery could lead to a viable short-term cancer treatment.
