DNA mutations causing cancer occur in cells through aging, environmental exposures, and cellular factors. By analysing thousands of cancer genomes, we found...
Antibodies, nature’s guided missiles, are designed to bind to their targets with high precision. The tighter they bind, the better they’re thought to perform....
Nowadays, one of the main treatments for cancer is cancer immunotherapy. This therapy boosts a patient's immune system to fight cancer. A recent study attempts...
Genetics revealed a rare soil bacteria may produce bioactive molecules. We discovered two new dimer molecules produced by this organism: one of which had an...
Our cells are filled with proteins. These proteins usually have a specific structure which help them to make the specific interactions we need to live. But how...
Has it ever crossed your mind that ants could detect cancer? A French team of scientists may have discovered a new non-invasive method for cancer screening...
Even though aging is the main risk factor for cancer, the age of a patient is still not generally accounted for in cancer research and clinical trials. We...
Cancer rarely develops in the small intestine compared to in the large intestine, but its reason remains mysterious. A new study reveals that certain microbes...
All body functions exhibit rhythmic behavior synchronized to the daily light-dark cycle. Disruption of our internal circadian clock can result in cancer. We...
Scientist are now able to modify the DNA of living organisms, thanks to the development of a new technology called CRISPR/Cas9. Recently, they designed a new...
Our diet strongly impacts our health. It is becoming increasingly clear that our diet is also linked to cancer risk, and thus perhaps may be a useful tool for...
Cancer tissues are often thought to be sterile entities in the human body, exempt from the influence of our microbial cohabitants. To test this theory, we...
