Tumor infiltration of major blood vessels, not metastasis, may be primary cause of cancer death
The ultimate cause of death from cancer may not be metastatic disease, as researchers have long surmised, but an infiltration of tumors into major blood vessels that cause blood clots and multiorgan failure, a one-of-a-kind ...

Enlarged cancer cell nuclei may limit spread rather than signal severity
In tissue biopsies, cancer cells are frequently observed to have nuclei (the cell's genetic information storage) that are larger than normal. Until now, this was considered a sign that the cancer was worsening, but the exact ...

Inflammation jolts 'sleeping' cancer cells awake, enabling them to multiply again
Cancer cells have one relentless goal: to grow and divide. While most stick together within the original tumor, some rogue cells break away to traverse to distant organs. There, they can lie dormant—undetectable and not dividing—for ...

Squeezing through tiny blood vessels may trigger melanoma cells to spread
Nine of the 10 most common cancer deaths in Australia are caused by solid tumors, but in most cases it's the cancer's spread to other parts of the body—known as metastasis—that proves fatal.

Detecting cancer cells in blood: Microfluidic device captures cancer cells with 90% efficiency
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) refer to cancer cells that have broken off from a primary tumor. These tumor cells can travel through the blood in the circulatory system and lodge themselves in other organs to cause secondary ...
