Question

A mitosis inhibitor is a medication that is designed to prevent mitosis in certain cells. How could these be helpful in the treatment of tumors?

Answer 1

Hi!

This can be a helpful treatment because a tumor is formed by the rapid cell division giving many immature cells. Preventing mitosis will prevent the formation of new cells and hence the growth of the tumor.

Hope this helps!!!!
