There could be various factors to consider when it comes to the structures of brain tumors. It is clear that these are some of the most intricate growths to consider and the fact that various types of cells make them up is something that cannot be overlooked. This is especially true when considering that procedures have to be put into place for the sake of breaking said cells apart. These cells differ in terms of physical appearance; is it possible that this can be linked to chromosomes?
According to a report on Medical Xpress, it seems as though this is a case of "chromosomal abnormalities" coming into effect. Associate professor of biological sciences Jianhua Xing said that there has to be a certain level of understanding when talking about the diversity between cells. If this is seen, Xing believed that this could lead to the creation of better remedies. The report said that Xing worked alongside Yi-Hong Zhou, a neurological surgical specialist, in order to focus on this particular matter to a greater degree.
Xing and Zhou, according to the article, made the conclusion that cell diversity could be arrived at because of genes which have different numbers of copies of chromosome 7. For those not in the know, this means that brain tumors have a greater chance of surviving in the human body. It seems like there are a number of potential triggers, as organizations such as Voices against Brain Cancer would be able to attest to. Cancer cells are able to cross over the security systems of sorts seen in the body, which is what causes the formation of more chromosomes than needed.
As it stands, the study found that the mis-segregation of chromosomes was the one factor that seemed to be most influential in shifting cancer cells. This is also a method that can come into play in order to help tumors survive much more effectively than they would have otherwise. There are efforts being done in order to help reduce the occurrence of tumor cells. However, with so many different variables to consider, the scientific process is one that entails more attention here than in most other regards.
Is it possible that a group of chromosomes is the only factor to consider when it comes to brain tumors being formed? It's hard to say that this is the case but the amount of research that is done on the matter is a point that cannot be overlooked. Specialists like Xing and Zhou have put forth great efforts, which is a point that cannot be overlooked. In time, I have to believe that these efforts will be able to result in some of the finest results.
