Cancer imaging is entering a phase where malignant cells no longer hide in murky grayscale but flare into view with surgical ...

A hidden “jack-in-the-box” mechanism inside T cells may hold the key to unlocking more powerful cancer immunotherapies.

Some cancer cells don't die; they go quiet, like seeds lying dormant in the soil. These "sleeper cells," scattered throughout the body, can stay inactive for years. But when the body faces a ...

New research shows that cancer cells don’t just grow; they adapt when stressed. When squeezed inside tissues, they transform into more invasive, drug-resistant versions of themselves. A protein called ...

When cancer cells are physically squeezed, they mount an instant, high-energy defense by rushing mitochondria to the cell nucleus, unleashing a surge of ATP that fuels DNA repair and survival. This ...

No matter where cancer cells grow in the human body, they are a threat to our health and our lives. But instead of treating them with chemotherapy or radiation - which have undesirable side effects - ...

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 identified ways in which chemotherapy can damage healthy cells and found that some drugs can add decades of "age" to otherwise normal blood cells. When you purchase through links on ...

When you take a drug, where in your body does it actually go? For most medications, scientists can make only educated guesses ...

Diabetes drugs may be doing more than managing blood sugar, they could also shape cancer biology in unexpected ways.
