UCSF scientists found a precise way to turn on cancer-fighting immune cells inside the body. This more potent form of CAR-T has the potential to treat many more cancers.

Researchers found that pancreatic pre-cancer cells mimic dementia by forming clumps of proteins due to faulty recycling processes. These insights could shed light on why pancreatic cancer develops so ...

Researchers discovered an antioxidant, glutathione, that cancer cells appear to be "addicted to" as fuel, opening new ...

Some cancer cells don't die; they go quiet, like seeds lying dormant in the soil. These "sleeper cells," scattered throughout the body, can stay inactive for years. But when the body faces a ...

For five decades, scientists have known about a notorious cancer-causing enzyme called SRC. But they always assumed it only ...

Cancer remains one of the world’s most serious health threats, especially when it spreads beyond its original site. That spread, known as metastasis, causes most cancer-related deaths. Now, ...

New research shows that cancer cells don’t just grow; they adapt when stressed. When squeezed inside tissues, they transform into more invasive, drug-resistant versions of themselves. A protein called ...

Researchers have discovered a secret super power that cancer cells exhibit while squeezing themselves through our bodies. The finding now gives scientists the chance to discover the kryptonite that ...

Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus have found that respiratory viruses can wake up dormant cancer cells in the lungs. They exposed mice to COVID-19 or the flu. In both ...

Cancer is caused by faulty genes, but what also shapes a cancer cell's behavior is how a gene's instructions are trimmed and ...

Now, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), have discovered that Src also appears like a flag on the surface of bladder, colorectal, breast, pancreatic, and probably many ...
