Lung Cancer Cells Hijack Brain Networks, Causing Neuronal Overload
When small cell lung cancer spreads to the brain, its cells can form direct connections, or synapses, with neurons, a new study reveals. This unwelcome integration hijacks the brain's communication network, causing dangerous overactivity in neural circuits and pointing towards potential therapies to restore normal function.
