Konstanz researchers identify an enzyme that plays a role in the migration of cells in our body—not only during normal tissue formation and wound healing, but also when tumor cells metastasize. This ...

A research team led by Professor Ki-Young Lee at the College of Medicine, Sungkyunkwan University, has uncovered a previously unrecognized tumor-intrinsic role of the immune checkpoint molecule PD-L1, ...

CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) serve as central effectors in cancer immunotherapy by directly eliminating tumor cells. However, current clinical therapies face significant limitations. These ...

KLF5 appears to fuel pancreatic cancer metastasis by reprogramming epigenetic controls, offering a potential new therapeutic target.

The emerging field of Cancer Neuroscience has revealed that the nervous system plays a pivotal role in cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis.

Within tumors in the human body, there are immune cells (macrophages) capable of fighting cancer, but they have been unable to perform their roles properly due to suppression by the tumor. A KAIST ...

Cancer specialists have long known that anemia, caused by a lack of healthy red blood cells, can arise when cancer metastasizes to the bone, but it’s been unclear why. A research team led by Princeton ...

Circulating tumor cells were first described in 1869 by Thomas Ashworth, an Australian pathologist who observed them in a peripheral blood sample taken from a patient with metastatic cancer. 1 They ...

A new study from the University of Chicago Medicine Comprehensive Cancer Center reveals that radiation therapy can spur growth in untreated metastatic tumors—even if they’re distant from the site ...
