Scientists have discovered that a rare “mirror-image” version of the amino acid cysteine can dramatically slow the growth of ...

Scientists have discovered that cells can sense far beyond the surfaces they touch. While individual cancer cells can probe ...

Normally, the immune system recognizes and eliminates abnormal cells. However, cancer cells can develop strategies to evade this control: they block defense mechanisms or send inhibitory signals. In ...

Metastasis occurs when cancer cells break away from the original tumor and travel through the bloodstream to form new tumors in other parts of the body. It is the leading cause of cancer-related death ...

A research team led by Albert Einstein College of Medicine scientists has developed a new strategy to engineer immune cells ...

After more than a decade of research, scientists have discovered the natural mechanism behind a novel form of cell death called ferroptosis. The work, described in the current issue of Cell, points ...

Scientists at University of California, San Diego (UCSD), have developed a new approach to destroying cancer stem cells (CSCs)—the hard-to-find cells that help cancers spread, come back after ...
