flag Researchers at Queen’s University Belfast study RNA's role in bowel cancer's resistance to chemotherapy, aiming to improve treatments amid rising early-onset cases.

flag Researchers at Queen’s University Belfast, backed by Cancer Research UK, are studying how bowel cancer develops resistance to chemotherapy, focusing on RNA's role in helping cancer cells repair damage from genotoxic drugs. flag The project aims to uncover mechanisms behind treatment resistance, especially as early-onset cases rise among adults aged 25 to 49. flag Bowel cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the UK, with about 1,300 cases and nearly 500 deaths annually in Northern Ireland. flag The findings could lead to more effective therapies and improve outcomes for patients facing resistant disease.
