Common mechanism tumours use to suppress immune responses: Study
The FMR1-deficient tumours stopped growing when T cells were removed from them, indicating that FMRP promotes tumour formation by influencing the...
Study identifies new gene that drives colon cancer
The inflammation allows the cancer cells to survive in an environment they otherwise would not. Inflammatory bowel disease is a known risk for colon...
Mechanism otherwise found in metastasizing cancer cells identified
Like the police, the immune system relies on division of labor. First of all, there are the dendritic cells. They search the tissue around the clock...
Researchers find cancer treatments in ‘dark matter’ of human genome
For new targets, they looked at the poorly-understood class of genes called “long noncoding RNAs (Ribonucleic acids)” (lncRNAs). LncRNAs exist in...
Therapeutic drugs can render cancer cells weaponless: Research
A study from the University of Bonn and the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf that has just been published in the Journal for ImmunoTherapy...
Cancer-related fibroblasts induce drug sensitivity: Research
Cancer-associated fibroblasts in the tumour environment have typically been associated with tumour progression and resistance to therapy
New study reveals how cancer killing cells can be activated
If the circumstances are right, the body's T cells are supposed to detect and kill the cancer cells. However, it has been seen that in most cancer...
Study reveals cancer cells may evade chemotherapy
Cancer cells can dodge chemotherapy by entering a state that bears similarity to certain kinds of senescence, a type of "active hibernation" that...
