The infamous Keto diet was named after it – here’s what actually happens to your body when you achieve ketosis ...
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 ...
Penn-led researchers have turned a deadly fungus into a potent cancer-fighting compound. After isolating a new class of molecules from Aspergillus flavus, a toxic crop fungus linked to deaths in ...
CAR T-cell therapy has the potential to revolutionise how we treat certain types of cancer by genetically engineering someone’s own immune cells to attack the disease – but it is also ...
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and Department of Radiation Oncology and Molecular Radiation Sciences uncovered a new tumor-suppressive response that could lead to novel ...
Johns Hopkins researchers found that tumor-derived mutations can be detected in blood up to three years before cancer diagnosis, offering the potential for earlier intervention.
They believe this unexpected response happens because high dose radiation increases the production of a protein called amphiregulin by tumor cells that are directly treated with radiation. High ...
Suppose the first woman undergoes surgery, reassured by the idea of “early” detection, but it turns out that the cancer has sent metastatic cells beyond the reach of the scalpel.
Hyperthermia, a cancer treatment using controlled heat to kill tumor cells, shows promise but faces limitations due to some tumor cells' unexpected heat resistance.
Cancer researchers discovered how exercise really can be like a drug for colon cancer, and AstraZeneca's immunotherapy drug boosted survival.
CAR-T cells are specialized immune cells genetically modified to recognize and attack cancer cells. Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan and their collaborators have developed new CAR-T cells ...
