Summary:
- The article discusses a 100-year-old heart drug called digoxin, which is derived from the foxglove plant, and its potential to help dissolve clumps of spreading cancer cells.
- Researchers found that digoxin can disrupt the formation of cancer cell clusters, which are associated with increased metastasis and poorer patient outcomes.
- The study suggests that digoxin, or drugs based on its mechanism of action, could be a promising new approach to targeting the spread of cancer cells in the body.
