Article Synopsis
- Cancer remains a leading cause of death globally, and while traditional treatments like chemotherapy and surgery exist, they often harm normal cells and face issues like drug resistance, highlighting the need for new therapies.
- Microbial products, particularly Azurins, show promise as cancer treatments, as they can target cancer cells, like those in breast cancer, without damaging healthy cells.
- Researchers have created a fusion protein, Azurin-BR2, combining Azurin with a cell-penetrating peptide to enhance its effectiveness; computational analyses suggest it can effectively bind to the p53 protein, potentially triggering cancer cell death and aiding targeted tumor therapy.
