Now, a novel research to advance cancer therapy

Immunotherapy research primarily focuses on better recognition of cancer cells by the body's own immune system. Researchers at Amsterdam UMC and Moffitt Cancer Center have taken a different approach.

A study by Van Andel Institute scientists suggests that restricting cancer cells' access to fat may enhance the effectiveness of certain cancer treatments.

According to a preclinical study conducted by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers, it may soon be feasible to detect whether individuals with hepatocellular carcinoma, a kind of liver cancer, may benefit from immunotherapy.

Columbia researchers developed probiotic bacteria that train the immune system to eliminate cancer cells, paving the way for a new class of cancer vaccinations that take advantage of bacteria's innate tumour-targeting abilities. These microbial cancer vaccines can be tailored to each person's specific original tumour and metastases, perhaps preventing future recurrences.

Researchers at Colorado State University discovered an alternative way for studying alterations during the DNA replication process in lab settings using genetically modified yeast. The novel methodology provides a clearer picture than current pharmacological methods for understanding cell cycle arrest, a fundamental mechanism critical to cancer treatment and genetic concerns.

The majority of cancer deaths are caused by metastatic disease, which occurs when cancer spreads from the primary tumour to other areas of the body. and researchers understand how cancer cells escape the primary location to seed new tumours, it is unclear why some cancer cells produce new tumours decades later and others do not.

The significance of gamma-delta T cells in 33 different cancer types is revealed in a recent study that was published in Cell Press. This information sheds light on the cells' potential as clinical biomarkers and therapeutic targets in the treatment of cancer. This thorough examination, which was carried out under the direction of a group of Moffitt Cancer Center experts, marks a substantial breakthrough in our knowledge of these distinct immune cells and how they affect cancer therapy outcomes for patients.

A group of researchers from the University of Cincinnati has discovered a possible novel approach to enhance the efficacy of radiation therapy and enhance the prognosis of patients with lung cancer metastasizing to the brain.

A recent study conducted by UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers found that new, non-invasive imaging technology can detect clear-cell renal cell carcinoma, the most common kind of kidney cancer.

Researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Centre showed that fever temperatures increase immune cell metabolism, proliferation, and activity, but they also promote mitochondrial stress, DNA damage, and cell death in a specific subgroup of T cells.
