Go into space increase cancer risk
The results proved that rats exposed to high-energy radiation in space named 56Fe eventually triggering tumor growth in parts of the intestine.
In addition, other studies explain that cosmic radiation prevents cells of the intestine breaks down protein called beta-catenin, so that cells growing uncontrollably and lead to colon cancer.
As reported by My Health News Daily, the astronauts are exposed to the radiation was shown to increase the risk of cancer. But the magnitude of the risk of cancer after a trip to space that could not be ascertained.
Researchers also used mice experiment to find out the estimated risk of cancer after a trip into space. In addition, they are working on strategies to prevent cancer attacks the astronauts and space explorers.
"Exposure to cosmic radiation on the astronauts are not good in the long run. Example mission trips to Mars and the amount of time spent on the International Space Station," said Datta Rooms, researchers from Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Given this research, experts hope could soon find a way to prevent cancer threat that haunts astronauts.
Results of both studies are planned to be equally reported in the meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research in Washington this week.

Go into space increase cancer risk - Going into space is suspected to increase the risk of colon cancer, according to new research in mice.The results proved that rats exposed to high-energy radiation in space named 56Fe eventually triggering tumor growth in parts of the intestine.
