Senescent cells, or ‘zombie’ cells, are damaged cancer cells that remain active, making it harder to treat tumors.

Researchers discovered the importance of an enzyme that promotes growth of certain lung cancers. Lung cancer is a ...

By performing biomechanical measurements on cells using an automated atomic force microscope and analyzing the results with machine learning tools, an interdisciplinary team from the LAAS-CNRS ...

Understanding how tumors alter their metabolism to evade treatments is an increasingly important area of cancer research.

As reported in Biophotonics Discovery, the team developed a novel microscopy technique that uses a standard fluorescence microscope in combination with imaging software. This method allows scientists ...

Understanding how tumors change their metabolism to resist treatments is a growing focus in cancer research. As cancer cells adapt to therapies, their metabolism often shifts, which can help them ...

Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center have developed a computer model to help scientists identify tumor-fighting immune cells in patients with lung cancer treated with immune ...

Many of the annual cervical cancer cases originate in countries where ... which is a procedure during which a microscope lens is used to evaluate the cells on the cervix and potentially take biopsies.

A kidney cancer cell nucleus is studded with aberrant nuclear speckles (orange). Normal healthy cells tend to have the speckles clustered toward the middle. Image credit: Kate Alexander (Cold Spring ...

The sample is then examined closely under a microscope to check for abnormal cells. Laparoscopic or transjugular surgical biopsies are also sometimes done. In many cases, a biopsy is not necessary to ...

MSK researchers are helping to map the landscape of viruses that infect us all, and to analyze the impact they have on human health and disease.

Cancer cells can poison attacking immune cells by filling them with defective mitochondria ― dampening the body’s defensive forces and helping the tumour to evade eradication 1. These findings ...
