Medicine & TechnologyInstitute of Science and Technology (IST) Austria scientists have uncovered the underlying mechanisms in immune cells which allows them to invade tissues, especially in tumors, at a specific time that could pave the way to new cancer treatments in the future.
Researchers recently showed that ATF4 protein, a genetic master-switch that controls the activities of hundreds of genes, plays a vital role in the growth of diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCLs), and targeting it could help kill cancer.
A team of scientists found that an olfactory receptor gene responsible for the sense of smell helps with the metastasis of breast cancer to the brain and other parts of the body.
Throat cancer is a puzzling type of disease that could easily manifest to anyone. Before hoarseness of voice appears, there are 3 early symptoms that could be detected to know if a person has a developing laryngeal cancer.
A new study shows that a high fiber diet influences the gut microbiome, which helps melanoma patients to respond better to immunotherapy and improve survival rates.
A small probe known as a nanobiosensor, that uses fluorescent to signal pH of cells in terms of their alkalinity or acidity is currently being detected by researchers.
An 81-year-old woman who was recently diagnosed with mesothelioma is currently seeking information if her illness may have been possible that she encountered asbestos while washing her husband's clothes decades back.
Researchers from Princeton University have identified a silver bullet to cancer metastasis. The chemical compound has been found to be effective against the spread and growth of major cancer tumors on both mice and human tissue.
Researchers from Bringham and Women's Hospital in collaboration with MIT discovered how cancer cells used nanoscale tentacles to slurp the immune cell's mitochondria to proliferate and metastasize in the human body.
