Autoaggressive T cells cause inflammatory fatty liver disease (NASH, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis) and the ensuing liver cancer. Scientists from the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ) have finally discovered the cause of this harmful behaviour. They discovered an increase in the number of
Lung disease and air pollution have long been associated with one another. A recent study has identified one biological mechanism that may be responsible for that connection; this finding may offer fresh information on how to cure or prevent diseases caused by exposure to pollution.
When it comes to motivation, sometimes looking within is important. Cancer-fighting immune cells, according to new research, have identified a way to do just that.
Cedars-Sinai Cancer Centre researchers discovered that fatty liver, a condition commonly associated with obesity, promotes the progression of colon cancer to the liver. Their research, which was published in the peer-reviewed journal Cell Metabolism, delves into the process at the cellular l
Brain cancer is a difficult-to-treat disease. As it progresses, glioblastoma destroys a person's mental skills, yet the tumor's insidious ability to penetrate neighbouring networks in the brain might also prove its undoing.
When it comes to inspiration, it is frequently necessary to look within. According to a new study, cancer-fighting immune cells have discovered a method to do precisely that
The findings, published May 8 in Nature Medicine, suggest that AI-based population screening could be valuable in finding those at elevated risk for the disease and could expedite the diagnosis of a condition found all too often at advanced stages when treatment is less effective and outc
When it comes to motivation, it is often necessary to look within. According to new research, cancer-fighting immune cells have discovered a way to do just that.
When the immune system's T cells are constantly stressed as a result of cancer or other chronic diseases, they suffer a process known as T cell fatigue. Our bodies cannot fight cancer without functioning T cells that attack tumour cells.
Obesity is known to raise the risk of colorectal cancer. Research from the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ) suggested that the significance of this link has probably been grossly underestimated. The reason is that many patients unintentionally lose weight before being told they have colo
Cancer cells that begin metastasis, or the spread of the sickness from its origin, differ from cancer cells that remain in the original tumour. Differentiating metastasis-initiating cell types can assist clinicians in determining the severity of cancer and developing a therapy plan.
