According to the new research that the Queen’s University in Canada studied, melanoma can be reduced when MicroRNA 193b is added in the skin. MicroRNA 193b is a gene that can be found in the DNA of all humans.

Melanoma is uncontrollable tumor of producing melanin cells in the skin. In addition to this, the newly found miR-193b is classified as small genetic molecules that modulate the expression of gene.

The pathology head and molecular medicine Victor Tron said that miR-193b can help in lowering the risk of having melanoma cancers. Although this gene is unknown for the last ten years, scientists keep looking for this gene to help people who have melanoma. Dr. Tron and his colleagues experiment this gene that might have significance in any science discovery but it turns out to be an important factor in slowing down melanoma.

In their experiments, they added miR-193b in the cells of melanoma and the result lowered the levels of cyclin D1 and reduced the growth of melanoma cells. Through the experiments done in their laboratory, tissue samples confirmed that the miR-193b plays a significant role in the process of melanoma. However, more research is needed to know exactly why the levels of miR-193b go up and down.
Dr. Tron also added that this discovery needs a lot more studies to do about curing melanoma. It is the most particular type of cancer in the skin. According to its percentage, 75 percent of the people with melanoma died because of this disease.
