Two-stage process helps metastatic cancer cells hide, then multiply in the lungs
Most cancer deaths are caused not by the initial tumor but by the spread of cancer cells to distant organs in the process called metastasis. Since it occurs at the cellular level, the earliest stages of metastasis are difficult ...
First complete marmoset genome will enable research on Alzheimer's and neurodegenerative diseases
To study complex diseases like Alzheimer's, scientists and clinicians analyze how genes change and malfunction in other species. Marmosets, a species of tiny monkey from South America, have become an important animal model ...
