New insights into how cancer evades the immune system: Study
Updated : 1 year ago IST
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.

Reducing stress on T cells improves their ability to fight cancer: Study
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Even for killer T cells, which are specialised immune cells, searching for and eliminating cancer cells around the clock can be challenging. Scientists can produce stronger cancer-killing cells if they understand why killer T cells become exhausted.

Research: Enzyme that protects against viruses could fuel cancer evolution
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
An enzyme that defends human cells against viruses can help drive cancer evolution towards greater malignancy by causing myriad mutations in cancer cells, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine. The finding suggests that the enzyme may be a potential target for f

Researchers unravel population of 'cheating' cells in cancers
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Researchers at UConn Health, Yale, and Johns Hopkins have identified that some cancer cells can "cheat" by escaping constraints imposed by lack of oxygen, allowing the cancer cells to continue to grow.
