Scientists have identified a molecular switch that may help explain how colorectal cancer becomes deadly. When levels of a ...

Cancer cells possess a remarkable quality called plasticity. This means they can change their form. This ability helps them survive and spread. Cancer cells act like young cells. They can adapt to ...

Researchers at NYU Langone Health propose a model that could explain how cancer cells adapt to environmental stress, an approach that may lead to new therapies. Published online April 15 as the cover ...

There is a constant war going on in your body. Working against you are viruses and cancer cells growing uncontrollably, ...

A new platform developed by researchers at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center quickly finds and isolates rare, ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic tangles overwhelm normal repair pathways, cells flip on a fast but error-prone ...

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 ...

New study shows that aggressive cancer cells can be identified in a simple, new way; by how they physically behave, not just by their genes. Using specially textured Meta surfaces pattered with tiny ...
