Metastatic spread and chemotherapy resistance are primary reasons for treatment failure and death in cancer patients. The process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) enables cancer cells…
Lymph nodes act as one of the body’s first lines of defense against disease. From these organic control centers, immune cells are sent into battle…
Your body’s internal clock, also known as the circadian rhythm, isn’t only responsible for managing your sleep patterns; it also has implications for cancer genesis,…
Freiburg researchers demonstrate that the transport of molecules along the cell’s skeleton plays a crucial role in cancer metastasis. Metastasis occurs when cancer cells break…
Exercise defeats cancer by increasing glucose consumption. According to recent Tel Aviv University research, aerobic exercise can significantly lower the chance of developing metastatic cancer…
The research improves our understanding of how cancer spreads. Scientists funded by Cancer Research UK have found that cancer cells ‘hijack’ a process used by healthy…
A Tohuku University research team has created a more effective lymphatic cancer treatment. Lymph node metastasis is a sign that things are going from bad…
Vitamin D can effectively block a key pathway used by ovarian cancer Among all cancers, ovarian cancer has one of the highest mortality rates. This…
Cells secrete type of collagen to stay dormant and wake up when collagen levels decrease. Mount Sinai researchers have solved a major mystery in cancer…
A newly published study shows that white blood cells and cancer cells can fuse and initiate a tumor, providing the first proof in humans of…
By uncovering the signaling pathway that promotes cell migration in certain forms of pulmonary fibrosis and by developing a drug treatment that may block the…
While observing breast cancer cells in culture, researchers at Cornell University identified two key proteins, Hsp70 and tTG, that are responsible for cell migration. By…
