Researchers give more insight into T cell functions
Updated : 2 years, 8 months ago IST
Researchers developed a tissue-imitating hydrogel model to show that more elastic tissues encourage T cells to develop into effector-like T cells with powerful tumor-killing potential, while more viscous tissues encourage them to develop into memory-like T cells

Study suggests new concept to understand T cell traits, functions
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
T cells encounter various mechanical cues in various tissues. In order to demonstrate that more elastic tissues encourage T cells to develop into effector-like T cells with potent tumor-killing potential, while more viscous tissues encourage them to develop into memory-like T cells, research

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, 10 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.

Researchers find how types of bacteria vary widely in tumors of people wit
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Centre studied the microbiome of people with colorectal cancer and discovered that the bacteria, fungi, and viruses in a person's tumour differed significantly depending on whether they were diagnosed with early-onset disease (age 45 or y

Study reveals how cancers in distant organs change liver function
Updated : 2 years, 10 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

Scientists find deadly brain cancer's hidden weakness
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
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.
