A counterintuitive discovery published today is reshaping how scientists think about one of cancer's most common genomic events: when a cell accidentally duplicates its entire DNA supply and fails to ...

You might think of cancer as a mass of rogue cells that grow uncontrollably. But cancer is more organized and strategic than ...

Scientists have discovered that a rare “mirror-image” version of the amino acid cysteine can dramatically slow the growth of certain cancers while leaving healthy cells largely untouched. Unlike most ...

How do different cancer subtypes arise? Do they originate from distinct cells, or from a single multipotent cell capable of ...

In a recent study, Stevens researchers have shown how colorectal cancers can evolve from mature intestinal cells that revert ...

A hallmark of cancerous cells is an abnormal number of chromosomes or chromosome arms, known as aneuploidy. While aneuploidy is detrimental to regular cells, it occurs in as many as 90% of tumors. How ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how cells behave when division goes wrong. Sometimes a cell successfully copies its DNA but fails to split into two, leaving it with double the genetic ...

A therapy that has revolutionised how we treat blood and skin cancers could become even more effective. Making cancer cells stiffer bolstered the effects of immunotherapy, when the immune system is ...

For decades, scientists have been all about DNA when it comes to cancer. But new research from Virginia Tech and Tel Aviv ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they used a form of magnetic imaging to track cell therapy injections commonly used ...
