In a study released this week, scientists said elephant genes may provide a crucial clue in the fight<wm> against the causes and prevention of human cancers, and potentially lead to the discovery of new medicines.
Elephants have been studied extensively, and their gene sequences have been deciphered by researchers, who are saying they contain many genes that are protective of human beings when people are stressed, sick, and unhappy, and that can help prevent cancer. They note that if those genes were incorporated into human cancer fighting drug treatment could be the answer to new treatments and possibly other medications that can cure cancer, and to protect</wm> against the causes and prevents of human cancers, for long in human lifespan.
