Scientists reveal how genetic changes lead to differences in the size of cancer cells

Cancer cells can shrink or super-size themselves to survive drug treatment or other challenges within their environment, researchers have discovered.

25 Jan 2023

Targeting newly discovered signaling pathway could boost the potency of cancer therapeutics

Cells zealously protect the integrity of their genomes, because damage can lead to cancer or cell death. The genome - a cell's complete set of DNA - is most vulnerable while it is being duplicated before a cell divides. Cancer cells constantly are dividing, so their genomes are constantly in jeopardy.

Study identifies women with twofold increased risk of developing contralateral breast cancer

Women with cancer in one breast may be at higher risk of developing cancer in the opposite breast if they are carriers of specific genetic changes that predispose them to develop breast cancer, according to a study led by the Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Study uncovers protein that kick-starts milk production after breastfeeding is over

Scientists have discovered a protein that kick-starts milk production after breastfeeding is over - something which could provide effective new targets for cancer treatments.

Researchers create large-scale 2D and 3D spatial maps of colorectal cancer

In the United States, turning 45 brings with it a rather unpleasant rite of passage: the beginning of regular colonoscopies, in which an endoscope equipped with a light and a camera is used to visually check the colon for signs of cancer.

New Pyk2-derived peptide inhibits breast cancer metastasis

An estimated ninety percent of deaths from breast cancer are due to complications resulting from metastasis, a process in which cancer cells break away from where they first formed, travel through the blood or lymph circulatory system, and form new, metastatic tumors in other parts of the body.

New community diagnostic center set to benefit thousands of patients in Stockton-on-Tees

Thousands of patients in Stockton-on-Tees are set to benefit from quicker access to tests, checks and scans - with a new community diagnostic center set to open later this year.
