 E-Mail Some antibiotics appear to be effective against a form of skin cancer known as melanoma. Researchers at KU Leuven, Belgium, examined the effect of these antibiotics on patient-derived tumours in mice. Their findings were published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine. Researchers from KU Leuven may have found a new weapon in the fight against melanoma: antibiotics that target the power plants of cancer cells. These antibiotics exploit a vulnerability that arises in tumour cells when they try to survive cancer therapy. As the cancer evolves, some melanoma cells may escape the treatment and stop proliferating to hide from the immune system. These are the cells that have the potential to form a new tumour mass at a later stage explains cancer researcher and RNA biologist Eleonora Leucci (KU Leuven). In order to survive the cancer treatment however, those inactive cells need to keep their power plants - the mitochondria - switched on at all times . As mitochondr
