This article is about the first big steps in better curing cancer, I want to share with you.

"The discovery of Croatian scientists: For all cancers we will know from where they spread throughout the body
The discovery is extremely important and can lead to better diagnosis of cancers, and then to a better and more targeted therapies
Scientific bioinformatics group of Zagreb, Faculty of Science (PMF) has achieved great success worldwide. Nature, one of the world's most prestigious magazine, published on Wednesday at the work Ph. D.. Rosa Karlić, research assistant with the Faculty of Science, the first author. In scientific work scientists from Harvard and from Zagreb found an association between epigenetic properties of tumor cells and progenitor cells of normal tissue in which the tumor is first created.
Research has shown that malignant tumors, despite the uncontrolled growth, cell division and the appearance of distant metastases, always retain the "signature" of tissue and cell types from which they are incurred. This allows the analysis of the tumor type and predict the tissue from which the tumor arose, and that information is extremely important in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. - We have also demonstrated that on the basis that where there are mutations in the tumor can be seen from that station that the tumor arose, so that was the primary tumor. A number of patients in whom the tumor has spread in the body just does not know where it originated. Our work is now changing - explains the researcher Rosa Karlić.
Therefore, this discovery very important and can lead to better diagnosis of tumors, and then to successful treatment and better targeted therapies. - We now continue our research. The next step is to apply our method to a larger number of tumors and individuals - says Rosa Karlić which is a significant success and achieve less than two months. Then, as a co-author of the work published in the journal The Cell, the best in the field of cell and molecular biology. "
