Scientists report landmark "evolutionary double-bind" strategy to overcome treatment resistance in prostate cancer.

When cancer-driving proteins resist various treatments, Northwestern University scientists have uncovered a new solution. Don't fight them—throw them in the cellular trash. In a new study published in ...

A feature of pancreatic cancer cells' surroundings determines whether they grow fast or become resistant to chemotherapy, a ...

Scientists have uncovered an unexpected reason why some cancers return after initially responding to treatment.

A protein made by stressed cancer cells helps lung and pancreatic tumors evade the immune system, a new study shows.

Tumours have developed many strategies and tricks to gain advantages in the body. Led by cell biology professor Sabine Werner, researchers at ETH Zurich have now discovered another surprising trick ...

Using AI, scientists have built a “GPS” for cancer-fighting immune cells. It’s a molecular navigation system that helped the cells lock onto cancer, kind of like Google Maps guiding travelers to a new ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising way tumors turn the immune system to their advantage. Researchers at the University of Geneva found that neutrophils—normally frontline defenders against ...

Scientists at UCLA have developed an "off-the-shelf" cell-based immunotherapy that was able to track down and kill pancreatic cancer cells even after they had spread to other organs. In a mouse study, ...

Neutrophils are everywhere in the bloodstream and are built for speed, rushing to sites of injury or infection to contain damage. In many cancers, though, their presence has long been linked with ...

Cancer cells can brainwash their neighbors. Like the CIA deploying secret agents to turn an enemy, tumors use a similar strategy to manipulate nearby cells. The tumors’ agents are mitochondria, the ...

STRESS could worsen cancer survival and patients should try simple ways to manage it, say scientists. Research found that the stress hormone cortisol increases tumour cells’ ability to grow and ...
