Scientists have discovered why ovarian cancer spreads so rapidly through the abdomen. Cancer cells enlist normally protective abdominal cells, forming mixed groups that work together to invade new ...

According to the American Cancer Society, colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death. Enrichment of regulatory T cells (T-regs) in solid cancers is generally associated with poor ...

Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new mouse model that more accurately reflects how uveal melanoma acts in humans. This could improve research, resulting in better patient outcomes ...

Neoantigens are unique markers that distinguish only cancer cells. By adding B cell reactivity, cancer vaccines can move beyond one-time attacks and short-term memory to become a long-term immunity ...

Scientists have identified a mirror-image form of the amino acid cysteine that selectively slows the growth of certain ...

A study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene mutation behaves differently from other variants. The study, published in Cancer ...

Professor Chad Mirkin found that the vaccine’s carefully organized structure dramatically boosts cancer-fighting immunity.

UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have discovered that increasing the levels of a protein called BACH2 makes engineered cancer-fighting immune cells behave more like stem cells, improving ...

Pancreatic cancer has long been one of the most lethal diagnoses in medicine, largely because it spreads early and hides from ...

Abstract Cancer cells precisely modulate replication stress to sustain genomic instability without triggering lethal DNA damage, yet regulators ...

An experimental drug combination was able to effectively treat pancreatic cancer in mouse models without tumor resistance.

A new study by cell biologists at the University of California, Santa Cruz, suggests that an early first pregnancy may protect against breast cancer decades later by preventing age-related changes in ...
