About 500,000 new cases of cervical cancer are detected annually, making it a very common type of cancer. The startling fact is that there are 20 times more people with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), another name for precursor lesions in the cervix.
Nine times out of ten, metastasis is the cause of cancer deaths. This is the point when the primary tumour has sent out cells, like seeds, and invaded other organs of the body. Despite significant advancements in the treatment of primary tumours, medicine remains mainly powerless against met
Due in part to its frequent treatment resistance, pancreatic cancer is an especially aggressive and challenging malignancy to treat. This resistance is linked to the chemical composition of the surrounding tissue as well as the tissue's physical stiffness around the malignant cells, accordin
The likelihood that treatment will be successful for cancer increases with early detection. Almost every kind of cancer is covered by this. Evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of each type of therapy on an individual basis and keeping a regular eye on treatment outcomes are also esse
Researchers discovered a protein CDK7 that could prevent heart damage caused by a routinely used cancer chemotherapy treatment. Importantly, the researchers discovered that blocking CDK7 could improve the medication's cancer-killing efficacy.
Fatty liver disease frequently causes chronic liver inflammation and can possibly result in liver cancer. Scientists at the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ) and the University of Tubingen have demonstrated in mice that intermittent fasting on a 5:2 schedule can block this progression.
Developing nerve cells outside the brain is where neuroblastoma, a common childhood disease, starts. Over 40 per cent of patients with high-risk neuroblastoma currently do not survive, despite the fact that patient's chances of survival have increased with more aggressive treatments.
Breast cancer survivors have a much greater chance of having secondary cancers, including endometrial and ovarian cancer for women and prostate cancer for men, according to new research based on data from almost 600,000 patients in England.
Liver inflammation, a typical side effect of malignancies elsewhere in the body, has long been associated with poor cancer outcomes and, more recently, with poor response to immunotherapy. A team of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania's Abramson Cancer Centre and Perelman School
Researcher Paul Dent of Virginia Commonwealth University's Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology found that tumours that have metastasized to distant locations, such as the brain, are most often impossible to treat and cure, despite recent successes in some tumour types such as NS
Lung cancer is not the most frequent type of cancer, but it is by far the most deadly. Despite therapies such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, only about a quarter of all persons with the disease will live more than five years following diagnosis, and the World Health Organiz
