Researchers reveal how cancer cells can predict metastatic potential
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
Cancer cells that commence metastasis, or the spread of the illness from its originating location, vary from cancer cells that remain in the original tumour. Differentiating metastasis-initiating cell types can help doctors identify the severity of malignancy and plan a treatment plan.

Newly-developed censor can detect early signs of cancer, distinguish type
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
MIT engineers have designed a new nanoparticle sensor that could detect early diagnosis of cancer with a simple urine test. The sensors, which can diagnose many different cancerous proteins, could also be used to distinguish the type of a tumour or how it is responding to treatment.
