Question: does chemotherapy effect the protein and sugars in our bodies

Diarmuid Kenny answered on 19 Nov 2019:

yes. Most chemotherapy will look to bind to a particular protein and stop it working. The idea is that cancer cells will have a lot more of that protein than non cancer cells so they will die a lot quicker than the normal cells.

When we take chemo, all of our cells are affected. Though new drugs are being made tha will specifially targert only cancer cells, so its likely we will have better drugs.
