The study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — ...

A study led by researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center found that normal cells surrounding a tumor, known as cancer-associated ...

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the skin cells, and its appearance can vary widely depending on the type of cancer. Understanding the variations in what skin cancer looks like can help ...

Cancer imaging is entering a phase where malignant cells no longer hide in murky grayscale but flare into view with surgical precision. Across operating rooms, scanners, and even blood tests, ...

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 ...

When cancer cells are physically squeezed, they mount an instant, high-energy defense by rushing mitochondria to the cell nucleus, unleashing a surge of ATP that fuels DNA repair and survival. This ...

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 are targeting dormant tumour cells that might explain why some cancers reappear long after successful treatment.

Cancer Research UK-funded scientists have uncovered dementia-like behavior in pancreas cells at risk of turning into cancer. The findings provide clues that could help in the treatment and prevention ...

Researchers have identified ways in which chemotherapy can damage healthy cells and found that some drugs can add decades of "age" to otherwise normal blood cells. When you purchase through links on ...

Cancer cells are known to reawaken embryonic genes to grow. A new study reveals the disease also hijacks the proteins, or "editors," that control how those genes are read. The findings, published in ...
