CFCF Funds Research at M. D. Anderson

June 6, 2007 – The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation (CFCF) has helped provide funding for new cutting-edge carcinoid research at M. D. Anderson, helping to aid a two-year carcinoid tumor research project.
The researchers aim to develop human midgut carcinoid tumor cell lines to help establish models for research at M. D. Anderson and elsewhere. The researchers also seek to identify proteins that mediate tumor growth by standard molecular biologic techniques.
