A research team led by Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho at KAIST has developed a pioneering method to treat colon cancer by transforming cancer cells into a normal-like state without destroying them. This approach, published in Advanced Science, employs a 'digital twin' technology to simulate the differentiation trajectory of normal cells, identifying key molecular switches that can revert cancer cells. This groundbreaking technology avoids typical side effects associated with cancer treatments and represents a significant step towards reversible cancer therapies applicable across various cancers.
