Study finds how cancer develops when immune system fails
Updated : 1 year, 6 months ago IST
It has been suggested that the immune system is unable to eradicate invasive tumour cells by referring to cancer as "a wound that does not heal."

Study team finds method for early detection of pancreatic cancer
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Mostly because it is discovered much later in life, pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest types of the disease. For screens aimed at early detection, the current markers are too ambiguous and insensitive. Now, a study team has published a novel technique in the journal Angewandte Chemie

New Israeli MRI Technique Offers Hope for Early Pancreatic Cancer Detectio
Updated : 1 year, 8 months ago IST
Pancreatic cancer is notorious for its late detection and high mortality rate, but a new Israeli approach to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that illuminates pancreatic tumors offers hope for earlier diagnoses and treatment.

Study finds how liver inflammation associated with poor cancer outcomes
Updated : 1 year, 10 months ago IST
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

Study finds how immunity from routine vaccines can fight cancer
Updated : 2 years, 4 months ago IST
In theory, a team from the University of Massachusetts Amherst proved that a protein antigen from a childhood vaccine may be administered into the cells of a malignant tumour to reorient the body's immune system against the cancer, effectively stopping it and preventing its recurrence.

Study reveals how ultrasound is promising technique for treating cancer
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
Ultrasound is a potential cancer treatment tool. Unlike laser light, which is employed in photodynamic cancer therapy, ultrasonic waves may penetrate deep into tissue (up to 12 cm) to treat deep tumours while causing no harm to healthy cells.

Do you know cancers in distant organs change liver function? Study finds
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
Researchers discovered that cancer frequently sends substances into the bloodstream that pathologically alter the liver, putting it in an inflammatory condition, causing fat to build up, and interfering with its regular detoxification functions.

Study reveals how cancers in distant organs change liver function
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine found that cancer often releases molecules into the bloodstream that pathologically modify the liver, sending it into an inflammatory state, causing fat accumulation, and disrupting its typical detoxification processes. This finding sheds light on one of

Pancreatic cancer rates rising faster in females than in males: Study
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
Cedars-Sinai Cancer Center researchers confirmed in a large-scale nationwide survey that pancreatic cancer rates are growing and rising faster among younger women, than males of the same age. Their findings were published in the peer-reviewed journal Gastroenterology.

Researchers find new genetic cause for pancreatic cancer
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
Study revealed the possible cause of pancreatic cancer. The findings hold implications for the targeted treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which accounts for the vast majority of all pancreatic tumors and is the fourth-leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.
