Scientists have uncovered an unexpected reason why some cancers return after initially responding to treatment.

The disease is usually diagnosed at the advanced stage, but this could be a 'complete game-changer' ...

NSCLC remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with EGFR mutations being a critical driver in approximately 10-15% of lung adenocarcinomas in Western populations, and up to 40% ...

Studying ancient microbes like this one is risky research, but it can also reveal novel biological mechanisms that inspire ...

Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in previous studies have discovered one reason why: cells ...

Genetic ancestry may play a key role in how acral melanoma, a rare and aggressive type of skin cancer, develops and behaves, ...

University of Missouri researchers found they can tweak the SRFR1 protein to boost gel-like condensates that drive longer ...

A new study published in Nature Genetics reveals that not all cancer-associated mutations in the same gene behave alike. Led in part by researchers from Koç University, the work shows that different ...

Cancer cells carry thousands of mutations, but not all mutations are created equal. Some make tumors highly visible to the immune system, while others help cancers hide. In this study, researchers ...

Whether it’s the ocean’s deepest hydrothermal vents or tall mountain peaks, bacteria is likely surviving and thriving. Ice caves can host a wide variety of microorganisms and offer biologists a bevy ...

Researchers have uncovered the mechanisms behind three unique subtypes of mismatch repair deficient high-grade gliomas. The ...

Nucleotide synthesis—the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA—is essential for cell growth and division. In most ...
