Signalling between neurons and tumour cells in the lung and brain promotes the growth of small-cell lung cancer. These interactions might be a therapeutic target. Read the paper: Neuronal ...

A new multi-pronged antibody design could help immune cells receive stronger activation signals against cancer. Researchers ...

A fluorescent probe for visualizing the signaling dynamics in metastatic cancer cells has been developed. A research team at the University of Turku (Finland), led by Johanna Ivaska and James Conway, ...

Small cell lung cancer cells that metastasize to the brain cozy up to neurons and form working electrical connections, called synapses, according to an upcoming study led by Stanford Medicine ...

Within tumors in the human body, there are immune cells (macrophages) capable of fighting cancer, but they have been unable ...

KAIST researchers have developed a way to reprogram immune cells already inside tumors into cancer-killing machines. A drug ...

A protein once thought to simply help cancer cells avoid death turns out to do much more. MCL1 actively drives cancer ...

Shiva Malek (left) is the Global Head of Oncology Disease Area at Novartis BioMedical Research (MA, USA), where she leads oncology drug discovery, from target discovery and validation, to lead ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Cancer drug resistance is the devastating reason that treatments fail and cancers metastasize, spreading to distant sites seeding new resistant tumors elsewhere in the body. Combating the problem has ...
