RAC1, La Sexta and the newspapers La Vanguardia and ABC, among other media, have echoed on news of a study done by researchers of IRB Barcelona that has demonstrated that the p38 protein regulates the formation of new blood vessels in tumours. A greater understanding of how the development of new blood vessels is regulated may help to improve chemotherapy treatments for cancer.
