Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new way to predict how cancer cells evolve by gaining and losing whole ...

Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan studied what happens when macrophages—a type of immune cell—encounter dying cancer cells in tumors and discovered a mechanism that accelerates tumor growth.

Cancer cells rapidly adapt to treatments, developing resistance that makes chemotherapy less effective. Researchers used an existing anti-inflammatory drug to disrupt cancer cells’ ability to adapt by ...

Scientists at MIT and Stanford have unveiled a promising new way to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells more effectively. Their strategy targets a hidden “off switch” that tumors ...

In a wholly new approach to cancer treatment, Northwestern University biomedical engineers have doubled the effectiveness of chemotherapy in animal experiments. Instead of attacking cancer directly, ...

The researchers used lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to deliver cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS) mRNA to cancer cells. This results in production of the endogenous stimulator of interferon genes ...

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 ...
