Just as bacteria, viruses and fungi develop strategies to outsmart antimicrobial medications, cancer cells can become resistant to chemotherapy. And among tumors, those associated with triple negative breast cancer and ovarian ...
Kidney organoids provide a promising platform in vitro to model the mechanisms of kidney disease, however, they are limited by an existing lack of knowledge of their inherent functional protein expression. In a new report ...
Scientists at Stanford University have found a way to induce cell death in cancer cells with a method that could be effective in around 50% of cancers. In a paper, "Rewiring cancer drivers to activate apoptosis," published ...
The therapeutic potential of microtubule-associated protein targets for cancer therapy is a largely unexplored research area due to a lack of target-specific agents. Sushmita Chatterjee and a research team in nanomedicine, ...
A paper published in the American Journal of Human Genetics proposes ATRIP gene variants as a breast cancer susceptibility gene candidate based on a study of women without any of the known breast cancer-associated gene variants.
Cancer biologists are yet to understand the mechanisms and cellular hierarchy leading to the developmental arrest in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS)—a group of pediatric cancers, which remain enigmatic.
