Viruses kill cancer.
Scientists have long been looking for biological agents that could kill cancer cells but leave healthy tissue intact. So, as an experiment, various vaccines were tested, and some of them quite successfully coped with cancer cells in the blood (measles vaccine).
Today scientists, relying on the latest developments in the field of virology and carcinogenesis, pin their hopes on the possibility of using viruses to destroy cancer cells (tumor cells).
How do viruses treat cancer? The essence of the methods lies in the fact that viruses themselves exist in nature as if in an inanimate form - this is a certain set of biostructures that can disrupt the integrity of the cell membrane and penetrate into the cell, changing its life cycle and thus cloning their own kind. It is believed that cancer cells are most attractive to the virus, since they quickly divide (multiply), which plays into the hands of the virus, that is, creates conditions for its rapid quantitative increase.
The human immune system reacts to a virus-infected cancer cell as a viral antigen and kills it. That is, a viral disease that has developed after the introduction of the vaccine, as it were, marks cancer cells, destroying their membranes, and the rest of the work is done by the human immune system itself.
This way of fighting cancer with viruses is far-reaching. The question of treating all types of cancer is the question of finding viruses that can destroy various types of cancer cells and the question of the impeccable work of the immune system to fight viral diseases.
