Overseas Network, February 9th. According to news from the Russian Satellite News Agency on the 9th, Russian doctors have realized the treatment of primate brain tumors by infusing chemicals for the first time in the world.
This method can be used in the future to treat human head and neck tumors that are difficult to reach by drugs.
Russian scientists said that the operation was performed at the Sochi Primate Medical Research Institute on the 5th.
The task of scientists is mainly to evaluate the toxicity and preservation of brain cognitive functions.
In the future, this method can be used to treat human diseases and minimize the impact of toxic chemotherapy drugs on healthy organs.
The mechanism of action is to make chemotherapy drugs directly act on the tumor through the blood vessels that supply the brain.
Andrei Kaplin, the chief off-line oncologist of the Russian Ministry of Health and the general manager of the National Medical Research Radiology Center of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, said that the main task of this experiment is to understand whether the brain tissue of primates is damaged.
"The brain structure is very sophisticated, and such experiments have taken a huge step forward. We hope that we are the first to find this method." (Overseas Net Wang Shanning)
