miR2Disease: a manually curated database for microRNA deregulation in ...Why is cancer not cured by now? This is a question that billions of people want to know. Every year billions of dollars is put into trying to find a cure for cancer and the only thing that is produced is more drugs to fight various types of cancers.

One reason why cancer might not be cured quickly is that the pharmaceutical industry makes more money off of cancer drugs than they would a cancer cure. The last disease that was cured was polio. No other diseases have been cured even with the amount of research that has been done.

Another reason may be the fact that the food and water supply has so many chemicals in it. Millions of people have cancer an the constant exposure to chemicals in every day foods and drinks may be why a cure might not work. If you keep being exposed to toxic elements than a cure is hard to find.

It is important for further research to be conducted on not only the root causes of cancers but in why some people respond to chemotherapy and radiation and others do not. Hopefully, a cure can be found in the next decade.
