Scientists have developed a strategy to boost the cancer-fighting power of natural killer (NK) cells, part of the immune ...
Cancer cells can disarm the immune system not just by hiding from it, but by actively reprogramming nearby immune cells into ...
Scientists have captured the most detailed structural images to date of a specific type of protein's DNA repair process, a ...
Researchers at VIB and VUB have developed a powerful new way to study how the immune system behaves inside lung tumors. By combining a patient-relevant mouse model with single-cell technologies, the ...
Cancer cells are known for their “glutamine addiction,” but many can escape this weakness by switching to alternative fuels.
Senescent cells walk a tightrope, risking cell death with high levels of iron and other damaging agents, but compensating for this by overproducing a protective protein, GPX4, which staves off death.
The new data bolster Allogene’s efforts to develop a new, easily administered cell therapy that could delay or prevent cancer recurrence.
Researchers have found that cutting off cancer cells from vitamin B2 strips away a defense that helps them escape a lethal ...
The stiffness of tumor tissue plays a role in how cancer spreads. Furthermore, stiff tumor tissue leaves traces in the ...
Scientists have created a new antibody treatment that helps the immune system recognize and attack pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer cells use a sugary "disguise" to trick the immune system into ...
Researchers at Umeå University have turned a protein from soil bacteria into a potential new weapon against colorectal cancer ...
Stem cell transplants led to remissions for Elsa “Elsie” Wiemerslage, 16, who died April 15. “She was a quiet, quiet warrior, ...
