Resistance to chemical carcinogenesis induction via a dampened inflammatory response in naked mole-rats
Naked mole rats are found to be resistant to cancer development through dampened inflammatory response due to genetically determined impaired necroptosis, with essential necroptosis genes RIPK3 and MLKL containing mutations causing premature stop codons.
