: The study uses "exogenous" (externally introduced) sickle red blood cells in combination with a vascular-disrupting agent to target the blood supply of tumors. 125535
: The researchers found that this combination triggers a "vaso-occlusive" event—essentially a controlled blockage of the blood vessels feeding the tumor—which leads to tumor cell death. : This highlights a potential "therapeutic repurposing" of
