The first writer of research, Dr. Caretin Brinkman, said that this research has helped to understand how the ends of cells and energy forming are connected among themselves. Scientists were speculating on this for years.

With this, scientists will be able to reduce the damage on the body by mixing MCL-1 drugs better with other medicines, and by giving the right amount. WEHI’s lab scientist Andreas Stusor said that if medicines reach cancer directly and do not touch healthy organs, then the treatment of cancer will be more secure and better.
