Chernobyl’s Wolves Develop Cancer Resistance

[Lartinos]

Could this be done in Humams?
Or is it not as dangerous there as people think?

The wolves that didn't are dead.

Some wolves don't get cancer just like some humans.

Some researchers believe cancer is a metabolic disease, not genetic.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20181022/

Emerging evidence indicates that impaired cellular energy metabolism is the defining characteristic of nearly all cancers regardless of cellular or tissue origin. In contrast to normal cells, which derive most of their usable energy from oxidative phosphorylation, most cancer cells become heavily dependent on substrate level phosphorylation to meet energy demands. Evidence is reviewed supporting a general hypothesis that genomic instability and essentially all hallmarks of cancer, including aerobic glycolysis (Warburg effect), can be linked to impaired mitochondrial function and energy metabolism. A view of cancer as primarily a metabolic disease will impact approaches to cancer management and prevention.

Natural selection at its finest. The cancer prone wolves probably died before having the chance to breed.

they have a cure for cancer but they won't release it

why?

too much $$$ to be made on cancer "treatments"

fuck them all to hell

No they dont, cancer gets everyone unless they die of something else first
Cells dont keep reproducing indefinitely, they always fuck up, thats cancer

Cancer is over-production of cells.

Why do those at the top die of it?

I know, cells are constantly reproducing, it just eventually fucks the process up and they start over/mass producing at a unsustainable rate

[dj181]

Why do those at the top die of it?

it happens for the good of thier money making machine

they dont care who dies of it as long as they can keep getting the masses t spend spend and spend

more $$$$ for them

its about power not money, anyone can print money

ok i stand corrected

it is bout this

wish to fuck i could get them into an isolated room

my god they would be in constant fear and pain would love to bestow this upon them

No doubt money and power are involved in keeping terminal patients alive but there is no cure for cancer or those at the top would never die from it.

Reminds me of the (possibly apocryphal) story of the Mexican super-rats.  Someone told me the government gave people lots of cats and put lost of poison down.  So the few rats left were too big to be taken down by cats, and immune to the poison.  Then they bred...

Reminds me of the giant pigs here in the Deep South.


I saw a blurb today about how Putin says they developed a vaccine that can stop cancer. Wonder if these wolves have anything to do with it?

Holy shit! Must be horrifying to run into them.

Yep. Or the tiny pigs from those remote (Indonesia?) islands. Due to the scarcity of food, only the smaller ones survived and breed.

Google was not my friend here - what's this about giant pigs please?  All I found were African Hogs

Google "giant hogs Texas".

Google "giant hogs Texas".

Wow - thanks - 700 plus pounds and they can be eaten!  Another reason I want to visit Texas LOL

Most have been proven to be domesticated wild hogs that are released and then killed. They can tell by how worn down their teeth are from eating farm food. It takes too much time to forage for that much food in the wild to get that big.

That sounds reasonable (although the term 'domesticated wild hogs' seems a touch paradoxical maybe?) - but I just want to know if they taste good    I've always enjoyed watching legit US BBQ Pit style videos so the idea of a portion of one of these being smoked sounds delicious

Yeah, they raise them secretly and then claim a state or world record when they "hunt" them. I'm sure they taste delicious.
