Bone cells suppress cancer metastases

2019-05-13

A subpopulation of bone cells releases factors that can halt the growth of breast cancer that's traveled to the bone, putting the cells in stasis.

Synthetic biology used to target cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue

2019-05-02

Synthetic proteins engineered to recognize overly active biological pathways can kill cancer cells while sparing their healthy peers, according to a new study.

New way to protect against high-dose radiation damage discovered

2019-05-30

Intensive radiotherapy can be toxic in 60 percent of patients with tumors located in the gastrointestinal cavity.This finding could be useful to mitigate side effects of other sources of intensive radiation, such as nuclear accidents, nuclear warfare or the exposure to cosmic radiation during space explorations.

Possible link between sugary drinks and cancer

Findings from a new study suggest that limiting sugary drinks might contribute to a reduction in cancer cases, say researchers.

When the cardiology patient ends up in the oncology care ward

2019-08-15

If you end up needing to go to the hospital, often times you're hoping to get a bed without having to wait hours, but a new study shows you may want to wait a little longer, so that you are placed in the best ward for your needs. New research shows that among patients admitted to the hospital, 19.6% are placed in beds in a ward outside the area of care they require.

New drug target in fight against cancer

2019-09-18

Researchers have discovered how a cancer-linked version of the protein mitoNEET can close voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC), primary gateways in the outer surface of mitochondria. The researchers detail how mitoNEET regulates VDAC, and they show that the interactions between the two proteins could be disrupted by a drug that targets VDAC.

New cancer-driving mutation in 'dark matter' of the cancer genome

2019-10-09

A research group has discovered a novel cancer-driving mutation in the vast non-coding regions of the human cancer genome, also known as the 'dark matter' of human cancer DNA.

How cancer and immune cells communicate

2019-10-30

Scientists are deciphering the contents of exosomes that cancer cells release. Studying the information exosomes contain and how they influence other cells may suggest new targets for cancer immunotherapy.
