One way that that's done is by introducing genes into cancer cells, genes that aren't normally expressed in any mammalian cell, but that will cause the cancer cell to die.

已经成功应用的一种方法是,将基因导入癌细胞,而这种基因通常不在哺乳动物细胞中表达,但是可以导致癌细胞的死亡

These are ways to stop a gene from being expressed, and there turns out there's lot of applications in that, lots of diseases result from the unwanted expression of certain kinds of genes and cancer is probably the best example of that, but there are many.

有些方法能够终止基因的表达,而这些方法也经证实有广泛的应用,有很多疾病是源于基因的异常表达,而癌症大概是这种情况最好的例子,但还有很多其他的
