Scientists may have found a way to fight cancer. They were an anticancer mechanism was discovered in the body of a small animal, living underground – a naked mole rat. The naked mole rat is not sensitive to acids, not afraid of pain and high concentration carbon dioxide, he has no signs of aging and he very resistant to disease, and lives 5-6 times longer than their own kind rodents. The digger is especially resistant to cancer: scientists even could not artificially develop cancer cells in him. By the results of a study conducted by scientists protects the animal hyaluronic acid, which improves elasticity and strength biological tissues, writes Utro.ru. The genome of the animal was deciphered back in 2011, scientists at Harvard University, it is 93% coincides with the human genome. Scientists express the hope that new data on the mechanisms in the body of the animal in conjunction with already known, will help them find a means of defeating cancer.
