Researchers have identified specific microbial markers associated with colorectal cancer, which could be used to develop a non-invasive diagnostic test.

Researchers at FAU have now discovered why pancreatic cancer and other malignant types of tumours can disseminate so rapidly.

A framework called PhenomeNET finds disease genes in a patient-specific manner by matching a patient's phenotype (symptoms) to a large database of gene-to-phenotype associations, including those from non-human model organisms.

Many tumors are thought to depend on glutamine, suggesting glutamine deprivation as therapeutic approach, but a new study shows that this effect might have been overestimated.

Researchers find that cancer-fighting T cells reside in the skin, where they can rapidly respond to kill melanoma cells and serve a critical role in protecting against future tumors.

Fred Hutch researchers have developed nanoparticles that can deliver DNA to T-cells, reprogramming them to fight cancer, in the body.

Detecting cancer early, just as changes are beginning in DNA, could enhance diagnosis and treatment as well as further our understanding of the disease.

Philips and PathAI team up to improve breast cancer diagnosis using artificial intelligence technology in ‘big data’ pathology research.
