• Generally the treatment to skin squamous cancer is quimiotherapy or surgery, but this research proposed alternatives treatments to this disease,differation therapy became cell into differentiated cell decreased the possibilities for the cells to divide.

Can differentiate into a number of cells, but only those of a closely related family of cells.

• Osteoporosis is one of the metabolic bone disease, is a reduced of the minerals concentration in the bones. It could be cause for bad habits of life. One of the symptones is debility and people with this disease are most likely to fracture. Is most characteristic in women and old people.

Medical utilities

• Molecular biology has allowed us to know new therapies and highly effective treatments for diseases, which provides a longer life expectancy and healthy for the entire population.

• These new therapies also seek to prevent cells from developing resistance to drugs allowing an improvement and a faster cure of diseases.

• Studies such as these serve to prevent the passage of mutations from generation to generation, which compromises a better future.
