Mr. Frosty, the Cancer-fighting Gecko

The video discusses Mr. Frosty, a gecko with a unique Lemon Frost coloring caused by a genetic mutation linked to cancerous skin cells. Researchers at UCLA studied this mutation to understand its genetic basis and implications for cancer development. The SPINT1 gene, found in both geckos and humans, plays a crucial role in regulating cell growth and cancer. The study of Mr. Frosty and his descendants may provide insights into cancer prevention and treatment in humans.
