No, if you read the scientific publication, no one was treated. It's just a quick and inexpensive in vitro experiment, not even done with multiple commercial cell lines to confirm or refute the results.
Similarly it could have been tested in living organisms (although most findings in mice don't translate to humans).

- noobermin 4y agoThat's fine...it's a start of a look at it, and all cancer treatments start at this stage of research of course. Exercise is already established as being beneficial for advanced cancer patients in managing symptoms (e.g., I've read it randomly but I came across this review in it treating cancer cachexia[0]), and if it leads to treatment, it'd be great. That said, yes you're right that it's not a in vivo level finding yet.
