Tumor initiation in pancreatic cancer driven by stress-tolerant cells: Stu
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
A molecular mechanism important for the development of pancreatic cancers has been found by researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine. The mechanism could possibly contribute to the disease's great resistance to treatment and proclivity for metastasis.

Physicists model cell migration to learn how cancer cells navigate tissue
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
This migration mode is one of the ways cancer cells navigate tissue during metastasis. In a new study researchers have explored mesenchymal migration through cell simulations and mathematical modeling. Their aim: to learn more about how cancer cells size up surrounding tissue for stiffness a

Research: Molecular interactions may be crucial in preventing spread of ca
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Researchers have uncovered a series of molecular interactions that may be crucial in preventing the spread of cancer cells. There is currently no effective therapeutic strategy to stop metastasis, which is the main cause of death from solid malignant tumours.

Study: Aerobic exercise lowers risk of metastatic cancer
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
The amount of glucose (sugar) consumed by internal organs rises during intense aerobic exercise, according to the researchers, which decreases the amount of energy available to the tumour. The study discovered how probability of cancer metastatic spread can be reduced by aerobic exercise.

Study finds level of copper in tumour cells
Updated : 3 years, 4 months ago IST
Cancer cells require proteins that bind copper ions in order to develop and spread throughout the human body. Recent studies on the interactions between proteins and how they bind to metals in cancer-related proteins have revealed possible new therapeutic targets.

Researchers find why Cancer cells require proteins, copper
Updated : 3 years, 4 months ago IST
Study revealed why metal copper are required by human cells to perform essential biological functions. The conclusion drawn from studies demonstrating higher copper levels in tumor cells and blood serum from cancer patients is that cancer cells require more copper than healthy cells.
