Eggs From These Genetically-Modified Chickens Could Be A Cure For Cancer Soon
In what could be a major breakthrough in the field of gene engineering and medical science, researchers in the University of Edinburgh’s Roslin Institute have developed chickens that can lay eggs with anti-cancer drugs.
This was made possible after the scientists successfully resisted the DNA of the chickens to add human proteins in their eggs.
According to BMC Biotechnology the eggs contain IFN alpha 2a, which has both anti-cancer and anti-viral properties, and macrophage-CSF, which is being developed as a therapy to trigger damaged tissue to repair itself.
