Cancer cell biology unravels the molecular and cellular underpinnings of tumour formation, progression and metastasis. At its core, cancer arises as a result of dysregulated cell cycle control, ...

Cancer cells may be exploiting a common antioxidant as fuel, revealing a potential weakness that future therapies could ...

A new CAR T-cell therapy attacks supportive cells in the tumor microenvironment that bear the surface protein, uPAR.

Scientists in Canada have uncovered a surprising weakness in glioblastoma, one of the deadliest brain cancers. They found ...

The growth protein, MYC, was consistently found with RBM42, which spurs MYC production, in human pancreatic tumors. Above, microscopy for MYC (red) and RBM42 (green) in a representative pancreatic ...

While cancer cells have been known to compete with each other for resources, it seems that they have also found a way to work together to gather nutrients. When exposed to amino acids, cells can ...

Researchers at Umeå University have contributed new insights into how cancer cells protect themselves from cell death.

Cutting off cancer cells' access to fat may help a specific type of cancer treatment work more effectively, reports a study by Van Andel Institute scientists. The findings, published in Cell Chemical ...

Donald Weaver, a professor of neurology and specialist at the University of Toronto in Canada, said he had long questioned why "so few Alzheimer’s patients have a history of cancer." Most people with ...
