Scientists have discovered how cancer cells survive chemotherapy Scientists have discovered that some cancer cells escape death after chemotherapy by entering a special zombie state. They secrete signaling molecules in it that attract immune cells and stimulate tissue repair processes, which allows cancer cells to return to growth after a while. Scientists have found compounds that can selectively destroy such cells.
