A new strategy developed by Professor Nathan Gianneschi grabs cancer-driving proteins and directs them to the cell’s disposal ...
A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...
Researchers at the Van Andel Institute suggest that the routes cancer cells use to process different nutrients deeply influence cell behavior. They discovered an alternate, or non-canonical, path by ...
Cancer Center at Illinois (CCIL) members Ratnakar Singh and Michael Spinella collaborated in new research that fills in ...
One way cancer specialists detect the disease is by examining cells and bodily fluids under a microscope, a time-consuming ...
Many therapeutic molecules used in cancer treatments are highly toxic, often harming healthy tissues and causing significant ...
A new CRISPR-based tool that is directly used on patients' cancer cells can identify genes and regulatory elements driving ...
Studying gene expression in a cancer patient's cells can help clinical biologists understand the cancer's origin and predict the success of different treatments. But cells are complex and contain many ...
A new, highly sensitive cell therapy was able to wipe out three different kinds of solid tumors in mice, an important advance in an area where CAR-T cells have long struggled. But significant ...
CAR T therapy has been transformative in the battle against deadly cancers. Scientists extract a patient’s own immune cells, genetically engineer them to target a specific type of cancer, and infuse ...
