Researchers in a new study have identified 27 new genes that may play an important role in stopping cancer.

The study, published in the journal "Nature Communications", suggests that this discovery opens up great doors in the world of cancer treatment.

The human cell has two copies of genes that suppress and prevent tumors, but when these genes are removed or disappear, cancer is allowed to appear.

Thus, the general rule of infection is that these copies of genes are defective, and a defect in one gene will not allow tumors to grow.

The researchers pointed out that identifying the defect that affects these genes is difficult because tumors contain a mixture of cancer cells and sound.

But researchers have developed a model that helps them evaluate a number of genes that suppress various cancers, such as the brain, lung, breast, colon and rectum.

The researchers identified 27 previously unknown genes on the subject, which may help them and open doors to everyone in an effort to develop new therapeutic mechanisms for different types of cancer.
