GPR52’s Role in Breast Cancer Cell Organization and Collective Invasion

Breast cancer cells do not always spread as solitary invaders. In many of the most difficult-to-treat tumors, they move through...

Scientists discover molecule fueling one of breast cancer’s deadliest forms

Australian researchers have identified a molecular vulnerability that could help explain why triple-negative breast cancer so readily spreads through the...

Drug combination shows promise against advanced prostate cancer

A new study from researchers at the University of Michigan has identified a potential two-drug strategy for treating an aggressive...

Study reveals how NF1 loss enables ER-positive breast cancer bone metastasis

A Baylor College of Medicine-led research team has identified a molecular route by which estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer cells...

UC Study Finds Too Few Eligible Americans Discuss Lung Cancer Screening

Lung cancer screening can detect tumors before symptoms appear, when treatment is more likely to succeed, yet a national analysis...

Oral Therapy Shields Healthy Mouse Tissue From Radiation Damage

A single oral dose of an experimental therapy protected mice from otherwise lethal whole-body radiation while leaving radiation’s ability to...

AI Helps Researchers Decode DNA Sequence Crucial for Gene Activation

The molecular switch that helps determine whether a human gene is turned on or remains silent has been decoded with...

Deep-learning pathology model predicts nivolumab outcomes in gastric cancer

Gastric cancer treatment may be entering an era in which a tumour’s microscopic appearance is translated into a personalised forecast...

Novel therapy targets previously undruggable protein in treatment-resistant blood cancers

A first-in-class experimental drug has shown strong preclinical activity against several aggressive blood cancers by exploiting a previously unrecognized relationship...
