A hidden clue may explain why some mutated cells become cancerous and others don’t: how fast they divide. A new study from researchers at Sinai Health in Toronto reveals that the total time it takes ...

Scientists have discovered that cells can sense far beyond the surfaces they touch. While individual cancer cells can probe ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have found a pattern of so-called epigenetic "marks" in a transition state between normal and pancreatic cancer cells in mice, and that the normal cells may ...

A new form of CAR T kills leukemia, multiple myeloma, and sarcoma in mice, opening the door to a future off-the-shelf cancer ...

New AI tool uses gene activity patterns to predict cancer spread, helping doctors identify high-risk patients and personalize ...

Cancer’s strongest gene switches push DNA into damaging overdrive, creating repeated breaks and repairs that may fuel tumor ...

Scientists have recently been learning more about the importance of small bits of circular genetic material known as extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA). These little circles of DNA can hitch a ride with ...

Scientists have discovered that a rare “mirror-image” version of the amino acid cysteine can dramatically slow the growth of ...

Researchers at UC San Francisco have now developed a way to reprogram these cancer-fighting cells directly inside the body. This new method could remove the need for external manufacturing, ...

A feature of pancreatic cancer cells' surroundings determines whether they grow fast or become resistant to chemotherapy, a new study shows. The ability of these cancer cells to adapt quickly and ...
