Researchers find copper links to lung cancer growth, suggesting potential new treatments.

Researchers at Princeton have developed a new tool to detect copper in human cells, focusing on its role in lung cancer growth. The study links copper levels to a factor that combats cell stress, suggesting that certain lung cancers could be treated with chelation therapy to remove copper. This discovery could lead to new treatment options, though further research is needed to confirm its efficacy.
