In a recent study, Stevens researchers have shown how colorectal cancers can evolve from mature intestinal cells that revert ...

Cancer cell DNA doubling — when cells accidentally duplicate all chromosomes without dividing — now has a new risk factor: ...

Scientists have discovered that a rare “mirror-image” version of the amino acid cysteine can dramatically slow the growth of certain cancers while leaving healthy cells largely untouched. Unlike most ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they used a form of magnetic imaging to track cell therapy injections commonly used ...

Megan Sweet slices tumors. A normal day in the lab finds the Virginia Tech graduate student with hands deep inside a refrigerated metal box, pulling a mounted mouse-grown tumor incrementally closer to ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they used a form of magnetic imaging to track cell therapy injections commonly used to treat certain autoimmune diseases and cancers. The findings, from a ...

Researchers found that smaller cancer cells with doubled DNA often behaved more aggressively than larger ones.

Scientists have uncovered a previously overlooked mechanism that may help melanoma cells become effectively “immortal.” Cancer cells face a major problem before they can become deadly: They have to ...

A hallmark of cancerous cells is an abnormal number of chromosomes or chromosome arms, known as aneuploidy. While aneuploidy is detrimental to regular cells, it occurs in as many as 90% of tumors. How ...

A groundbreaking study from Hokkaido University reveals how different mechanisms of DNA duplication affect cell survival, ...
