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

Lymph nodes, considered the command centers of our immune system, often get swollen and stiff when fighting infection. Now, a UC Berkeley-led team of researchers has discovered that this mechanical ...

Engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a technique that uses microbubbles and ultrasound to help relatively large cancer drugs enter tumor cells and cause them to self-destruct. Dubbed ...

An unexpected discovery may bring scientists closer to a long-sought goal: finding an ideal immunotherapy target for solid tumors.

For five decades, scientists have known about a notorious cancer-causing enzyme called SRC. But they always assumed it only appeared on the inside of cells, where it sent signals that fueled tumor ...

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

Senescent fibroblasts are aging cells in connective tissue that no longer divide and protect against tumor development. Yet, these same cells can promote cancer growth in a laboratory setting. Until ...

New molecular insights into the link between hepatocellular carcinoma and intratumoral fibrosis could lead to better ...

Researchers at the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology have found that physically resisting the formation of an immunological synapse actually promotes a stronger immune response. The findings could ...

A new method can produce specially designed proteins that can arm T cells to attack cancer cells. Precision personalized cancer treatment on a larger scale has come a step closer after researchers ...

Researchers have successfully used repurposed cancer drugs to target dormant breast cancer cells, aiding in the delay or prevention of recurrence, according to a study published Sept. 2 in Nature ...

Scientists have discovered why ovarian cancer spreads so rapidly through the abdomen. Cancer cells enlist normally protective abdominal cells, forming mixed groups that work together to invade new ...
