Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new way to predict how cancer cells evolve by gaining and losing whole chromosomes, changes that help tumors grow, adapt and resist treatment. In ...

An imbalance in the production of blood cells can lead to the aggressive blood cancer acute myeloid leukaemia. A new study finds a way to stop malignant stem cells. The researchers believe their ...

Cancer doesn’t evolve by pure chaos. Scientists have developed a powerful new method that reveals the hidden rules guiding how cancer cells gain and lose whole chromosomes—massive genetic shifts that ...

A cancer cell line that is resistant to one of the newest classes of cancer treatments has been developed by researchers who already are using it to determine what else to give patients when this ...

A team of Walter and Eliza Hall Institute researchers has worked out how a new class of anti-cancer drugs kills cancer cells, a finding that helps explain how cancer cells may become resistant to ...

A cancer drug class best known for attacking tumors may also help your immune system remember them better. Researchers at ...

Cancer cells are basically the ultimate rule-breakers of the body. Under normal conditions, our cells follow a pretty strict set of instructions: grow when needed, stop when the job is done, and die ...

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 ...

Obesity significantly increases the risk of developing certain types of cancer through several interacting biological factors ...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive form of blood cancer. It affects people of all ages but is most common in those over 65. Around 150 people are diagnosed with the disease each year in ...

Cancer often infiltrates a person’s life long before anyone knows it. By the time symptoms arise and an examination indicates the worst, the disease has often been growing for months and sometimes ...
