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 study led by Brazilian researchers has reconstructed the brain environment in the lab, revealing for the first time live interactions between cancer and healthy tissue, with the potential to reshape ...

Researchers in Class of 1942 Professor of Chemistry Matthew D. Shoulders' lab have uncovered a sinister hidden mechanism that ...

Researchers have developed a new class of antibodies that amplify the immune system’s ability to fight cancer. By clustering immune receptors that normally receive weak signals from tumors, these four ...

A mysterious RNA molecule found only in breast cancer led researchers on a six-year hunt that uncovered an entire hidden layer of cancer biology. The story began with T3p, a tiny RNA molecule found in ...

Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

Why do some tumours spread while others remain localised? The mechanisms governing the metastatic potential of tumour cells remain largely unknown — yet understanding this is crucial for optimising ...

A new multi-pronged antibody design could help immune cells receive stronger activation signals against cancer. Researchers at the University of Southampton have identified a new strategy that could ...
