These cells — mainly blood and gut cells — are all replaced with new ones, but the way our bodies rid themselves of material could have profound implications for cancer therapies in a new approach developed by Stanford Medicine researchers.
Of course, they must have known that the body replaces almost all its cells every 7 years, thus clearing a lot of cellular problems. They could have figured it out form there. There was a way to get rid of the old cells, the cellular debris and make way for new cells. I would bet they will use stem cells in their therapy, too.
