Tracking how cancer cells develop in real time How these differences in the genome and in epigenetic control arise in cells, and how they are passed on to their daughter and granddaughter cells, has ...

A research team has made a breakthrough in epigenetic drug discovery. The researchers have successfully developed a ...

Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

Cells are the smallest units of life. But even within the same tissue or organ, they are not all identical. New variations arise continuously during cell proliferation. While genetic mutations alter ...

Senescent fibroblasts are aging cells in connective tissue that no longer divide and protect against tumor development. Yet, these same cells can promote cancer growth in a laboratory setting. Until ...

A study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene ...

Scientists have developed a tool that can predict how bowel cancer adapts to treatment – helping researchers to design new personalized drugs that will keep patients living well for longer. A team ...

Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified a new way to reprogram T cells, ...

A vitamin A byproduct has been found to quietly disarm the immune system, allowing tumors to evade attack and weakening ...

Researchers have unlocked a way to grow the immune system’s “conductors” from stem cells, bringing ready-made cancer-fighting therapies a big step closer. For the first time, scientists at the Univers ...

Scientists have presented a new approach to cancer treatment using mast cells, which are immune cells known for their ability ...

Findings from a study co-led by UTSW reveal a possible mechanism behind a malignancy that has risen rapidly over the past few ...
