Chemotherapy - A Prostate Cancer Therapy
As the term suggests, chemotherapy is done using chemicals to kill rapidly dividing
cells.
At some point, one of the disadvantages of chemotherapy is that it also kills normal
cells that divide rapidly.
Since most cancer cells are really fast in splitting and dividing
compared with the normal cells, most chemicals used for this type of therapy attack the
cancer cells first.
Those drugs used for chemotherapy treatment work by impairing and misaligning
cell division.
And the targets are the fast-dividing cells.
Eventually, as chemical
compounds work to attack fast-growing cells, tumor cells which are prone to cell division
is being damaged faster than the regular cells, thus allowing the impacted part to have
less constraints.
Are we aware that chemicals used for the chemotherapy process effectively reduce
younger tumors than malignant one? It is said that it is easier to cure a cancer if the roots
are just new, and it is not in an advance s
