The Tasmanian devil will be saved !!

Something was discovered that once and for all could save the devil from Tasmania of its extinction, this animal is a kind of exclusive marsupial of the island of Tasmania, has the habit of biting his face during fights and unfortunately through these bites they transmit to each other a variety of facial cancer, which is leading them to extinction, if contagious cancer, in the world only 8 types of this cancer are known and quiet that does not affect humans, but two of these types affect this threatened species, poor has had bad luck.

But what was discovered last week, is that these tumors are expanded using molecules known as receptor tyrosine kinases, which are present in human cancers and this is not to imply that cancer can also be contagious among humans, but that there are already drugs developed for humans that attack these molecules, drugs that were successful in stopping the growth of the cancer cells of Tasmanian devil in the laboratory, so that the salvation of this species could finally be very close
