Scientists report that they have learned how certain combinations of rearranged genes can promote the progression of a rare type of kidney cancer. The study was led by investigators at the Johns ...

DNA can voyage along intercellular highways called tunneling nanotubes. It’s a phenomenon that could potentially spread tumor ...

The way DNA folds inside the nucleus of brain cells may hold the key to understanding a devastating form of brain cancer called glioblastoma, suggests a new preclinical study. The findings offer a new ...

A new case report was published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on February 5, 2025, titled "Acquired RUFY1-RET rearrangement as a mechanism of resistance to lorlatinib in a patient with CD74-ROS1 ...

When it comes to cancer, tumor suppressor genes are usually thought of as the "good guys." These genes make proteins that ...

Cancer’s genetic fingerprints may lurk in people’s blood long before they find out about the disease. It’s possible to spot tumor DNA more than three years before a person is diagnosed with cancer, ...

Normal TFE3 protein appears diffuse throughout a cell (left), whereas the TFE3 fusion proteins found in a rare kidney cancer form tiny liquid droplets near the cell’s DNA, where they regulate ...

The way DNA folds inside the nucleus of brain cells may hold the key to understanding a devastating form of brain cancer called glioblastoma, suggests a new preclinical study from Weill Cornell ...
