This “chaos enzyme” may hold the key to stopping cancer spread

A Weill Cornell Medicine team has found that triple-negative breast cancer depends on the enzyme EZH2 to spread. By silencing key genes, EZH2 drives chaotic cell divisions and fuels metastasis. Blocking EZH2 restored stability and prevented cancer cells from traveling to distant organs. This discovery opens the door to new therapies that may finally tame this aggressive disease.
