Israeli scientists found that breast cancer cells can hide in the body for years by entering a dormant state, mimicking natural cell processes. A protein called OVOL helps push the cancer into this “sleep mode,” slowing its growth. However, if OVOL levels drop—such as during hormonal changes—the cancer can reactivate more aggressively. The study also found that dormant cells build up harmful molecules that damage DNA. This research could lead to new ways to prevent cancer from returning after remission.
