Researchers found that pancreatic pre-cancer cells mimic dementia by forming clumps of proteins due to faulty recycling processes. These insights could shed light on why pancreatic cancer develops so ...

Researchers are targeting dormant tumour cells that might explain why some cancers reappear long after successful treatment.

Cancer Research UK-funded scientists have uncovered dementia-like behavior in pancreas cells at risk of turning into cancer. The findings provide clues that could help in the treatment and prevention ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

The immune system provides constant surveillance for the body, aiming to spot and eliminate disease-causing microbes or ...

A team of cancer biologists led by Princeton’s Yibin Kang has resolved a confounding paradox about retinoids and cancer cells ...

Appendix cancer, also called appendiceal cancer, is when abnormal cells grow and form a tumor in the appendix. Your appendix is a little pouch-like organ attached to the lower right side of your large ...

Cancer cells can brainwash their neighbors. Like the CIA deploying secret agents to turn an enemy, tumors use a similar strategy to manipulate nearby cells. The tumors’ agents are mitochondria, the ...

When it comes to their survival, cancer cells have a host of backup plans. This is especially true of the nutrients that cancers use to grow and spread. In addition to relying on sugars like glucose ...
