Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have identified a protein called tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) as ...

After more than a decade of research, scientists have discovered the natural mechanism behind a novel form of cell death ...

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

The emergence of cancer drug resistance remains one of the most pressing problems in cancer care and there is a critical need to devise approaches to mitigate it. However, the molecular mechanisms ...

A new strategy developed by Professor Nathan Gianneschi grabs cancer-driving proteins and directs them to the cell’s disposal ...

The emergence of cancer drug resistance remains one of the most pressing problems in cancer care and there is a critical need to devise approaches to mitigate it. However, the molecular mechanisms ...

Death of a few cells within tumors is common, for example, following therapy or because a growing cancer outstrips the blood supply. Caetano's team works on immune cells called dendritic cells that ...

Scientists discovered that certain cancer cells use a low-level activation of a DNA-dismantling enzyme—normally seen in cell death—to survive treatment. Instead of dying, these “persister cells” ...

Researchers in Japan have identified a striking new way immune cells strip DNA out of dying neighbors, a process they call ...

A new study is shining a light on a potential way to make treatments work better for one of the deadliest forms of cancer. Researchers at Ohio University have identified a protein that could be a ...
