Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new way to predict how cancer cells evolve by gaining and losing whole chromosomes, changes that help tumors grow, adapt and resist treatment. In ...

Adelaide University researchers are preparing to send living cancer cells into space aboard a suborbital rocket, in a ...

Cancer often infiltrates a person’s life long before anyone knows it. By the time symptoms arise and an examination indicates the worst, the disease has often been growing for months and sometimes ...

The prospect of simply walking into a doctor’s office and breathing into a handheld device for a few seconds to screen for lung cancer sounds too convenient to be true. Well, that scenario moved ...

A protein involved with cell death can be manipulated to slow or reverse tumor growth, a pair of new studies in mice found. A colorized three dimensional micrographic scan of a melanoma cell. Recent ...

Cancer is a disease that starts with uncontrolled cell division and eventually causes tissue and organ damage. The disease may arise in any part of the body, but some organs have been found to be more ...
