Cancer cells that have broken away from a primary tumor can lurk in the body for years in a dormant state, evading immune ...

Stopping cancer cells from entering a soft biomechanical state could help the immune system clear dormant cancer metastasis.

A new Brazilian study has revealed the key role of the protein periostin and stellate pancreatic cells in allowing pancreatic ...

Brazilian research shows that stellate pancreatic cells produce periostin, remodeling tissue and facilitating tumor infiltration, a key mechanism of the aggressiveness and high mortality of the ...

"Cell movement is essential for cancer cells to spread from the primary tumour to secondary sites. Even though this is widely recognised as the key step in cancer progression, there are currently no ...

Of all the types of breast cancer, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive and lacks specific therapies.

A protein found in our cells could act as an early warning sign for aggressive cancers—and a new target for drugs to stop them spreading. This is the discovery of scientists from Brunel University of ...

Glioblastoma is a devastatingly effective brain cancer. Doctors can cut it out or blast it with radiation, but that only buys time. The cancer has an insidious ability to hide enough tumor cells in ...

Researchers have developed a magnetic nanomaterial that can kill bone cancer cells and support bone regeneration at the same ...

New Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center research reveals how dormant metastatic cancer cells protect themselves from the ...
