Scientists at Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) have made a major discovery about cancer cells. This new understanding could help make chemotherapy work better, reduce side effects, and ...

A hidden “jack-in-the-box” mechanism inside T cells may hold the key to unlocking more powerful cancer immunotherapies.

Tumours have developed many strategies and tricks to gain advantages in the body. Led by cell biology professor Sabine Werner, researchers at ETH Zurich have now discovered another surprising trick ...

Gastric (stomach) cancer remains one of the most common and deadly cancers in East Asia, including Korea. Yet despite its ...

Griffith University researchers have shown that the shape and surface chemistry of microscopic "re-entrant" structures—tiny overhanging caps arranged like mushroom tops—can tune how cancer cells stick ...

Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before ...

Gliomas are cancers that originate directly in the brain, instead of spreading to the brain from other parts of the body.

A new study explains how pancreatic tumors use a sugar coating to hide from the immune system and shows that a newly developed antibody can restore immune responses in mice. Pancreatic cancer remains ...

A study published in Science Advances shares new insights into how two of the most common types of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells kill cancer. Investigators from Baylor College of Medicine, ...

Seals give birth only when conditions are right. After mating, a female seal can delay implantation of the embryo in the ...

Researchers have created tiny metal-based particles that push cancer cells over the edge while leaving healthy cells mostly unharmed. The particles work by increasing internal stress in cancer cells ...

Subcutaneous immunotherapy injections work the same way as their intravenous counterparts — by changing or enhancing a person’s immune responses to cancer. Immunotherapy for cancer is a broad category ...
