Scientists have found that a common bacterium that usually lives in the mouth can help stomach cancer grow by feeding tumors with a substance they use as fuel. The discovery suggests that this ...

Research has uncovered a surprising biological twist: molecules that help support healthy aging can also contribute to cancer growth.

Signalling between neurons and tumour cells in the lung and brain promotes the growth of small-cell lung cancer. These interactions might be a therapeutic target. Read the paper: Neuronal ...

The KLF5 gene fuels growth spreading pancreatic cancer not by acquiring abnormal changes in the cancer cells' DNA but by altering chemical changes and organization of DNA.

A new strategy developed by Professor Nathan Gianneschi grabs cancer-driving proteins and directs them to the cell’s disposal ...

A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...

A new CRISPR-based tool that is directly used on patients' cancer cells can identify genes and regulatory elements driving ...

When cancer cells die, macrophages consume them and produce inflammatory cytokines. This activates JAK and STAT proteins in living cancer cells, enabling them to produce their own Upd3 and creating a ...

Small cell lung cancer cells that metastasize to the brain cozy up to neurons and form working electrical connections, called synapses, according to an upcoming study led by Stanford Medicine ...

The relationship between sugar consumption and cancer development represents one of the most concerning nutritional discoveries of recent decades. While many people understand that excessive sugar ...

What we eat plays a major role in our health and well-being, especially in the development of chronic disease. On a recent episode of Dr. Mark Hyman’s podcast, "The Dr. Hyman Show," the physician and ...
