A newly discovered gene switch may help turn chemotherapy-resistant pancreatic cancer into a treatable disease.

Scientists have identified a crucial molecular switch that decides whether pancreatic cancer cells resist chemotherapy or respond to it. The key player, a gene called GATA6, keeps tumours in a more ...

A new radioimmunotherapy approach has been shown to successfully eliminate cancer stem cells (CSCs) in preclinical models of ovarian cancer, outperforming the current gold standard. This research, ...

Cancer spreads (metastasizes) when tumor cells shed from a primary solid tumor (for example, in the breast) and embed in ...

Researchers at the Cancer Research Institute and the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, have ...

Cambridge scientists have shown that when tumours first emerge, interactions with healthy cells in the underlying supportive tissue determine their ability to survive, grow, and progress to advanced ...

Researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of University of Southern California (USC) have developed a new type of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell that elicits a more controlled immune response ...

A new study describes a technique that rejuvenates aging blood-forming stem cells and could help reduce the risk of age-related blood disorders.
