戰爭造成無數的傷亡,絕對需要盡力制止發生。436Please respect copyright.PENANANZ9NwzUYmQ
但非常諷刺的是,化療的堀起,是與第二次世界大戰有著緊密的關係。436Please respect copyright.PENANAbaYXnT76Jg

(圖2)1942年,Louis Goodman以及Alfred Gilman被美國國防部徵召,希望二人及其團隊研究戰爭上的化學武器會否含有未知的醫療價值。436Please respect copyright.PENANAGo6257wKIK

其中他們發現得到,中了氮芥氣體(Nitrogen Mustard)的士兵,身體的淋巴系統及骨髓有著明顯的生長抑壓。436Please respect copyright.PENANA9z5M9q9t0P
436Please respect copyright.PENANA0QkunzOf1x
(圖3)基於這發現,他們嘗試將士兵身上中毒的相約份量的氮芥類近物注入在患有淋巴癌的老鼠,發現真的是能夠將腫瘤的體積減細。436Please respect copyright.PENANA5LUgLFJrgK

箇中的機制相信是因為氮芥化學物能夠與某部份的DNA結合,引致DNA的結構出現錯亂,促使細胞啟動自行毀壞的程序。436Please respect copyright.PENANA4t4M7nAKFE

而在患上淋巴癌的病人測試方面,氮芥類近物的確能夠大幅度消滅癌細胞。可惜的是,癌細胞在數星期後再次出現,而氮芥類近物亦再沒能把其消滅。436Please respect copyright.PENANASVi1ZIg7KL
436Please respect copyright.PENANAXyCtTAxvCE
雖然是次測試沒能徹底消滅癌細胞,但這實驗結果讓公眾意識得到藥物治療癌症的可能性,政府及研究機構亦開始因而願意「開水喉」投放更多的資金在治癌藥物的研究之上。436Please respect copyright.PENANAu9gjUa57hH

再睇番原文及另一篇文章,士兵中毒影響骨髓淋巴生長係第一次世界大戰的發現,那兩個人係基於依個發現先進行老鼠實驗。436Please respect copyright.PENANAHQo28SuTD4
