Quieting Cancer Gene Reverses Liver Tumors in Mice

NEW YORK  - Certain genes are known to  promote cancer, and one such "oncogene" called MYC is commonly  activated in liver tumors. Researchers in California have now  shown, in mice, that when the MYC gene is turned off, liver  cancer cells become normal.
