Researchers discover a dependency of glioblastoma on biotin distribution
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Glioblastoma is the most lethal and malignant adult brain cancer that may arise from the neuroglial stem or progenitor cells. Certain gene mutations or those with a known history of other cancers and radiation therapy may predispose patients to develop brain cancer. Tumour relapse is invaria

Aggressive surgery improves survival in patients with low-grade brain tumo
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
According to the findings of a study led by UC San Francisco, the progression of a low-grade, slow-growing brain tumour to a deadly one can be delayed if neurosurgeons remove as much as possible soon after diagnosis.

Research reveals new method for tracking gene activity across tissues
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
The method, described in the study published journal 'Nature Biotechnology,' records gene activity patterns and the presence of key proteins in cells across tissue samples while retaining information about the cells' precise location. This allows for the creation of complex, data-rich "maps"

Researchers identify immune cell that helps kill bladder cancer tumors
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Mount Sinai researchers have made two important discoveries about the mechanism by which bladder cancer cells foil attacks from the immune system. The research, published in Cancer Cell in September, could lead to a new therapeutic option for patients with these types of tumors.

Cellular messengers improve cancer therapy: Research
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Nano-sized membrane bubbles known as extracellular vesicles activate the immune system in mice and seem to render their tumours sensitive to a type of immunotherapy drug called a checkpoint inhibitor. This is according to a new study published in Cancer Immunology Research by researchers at

Delaying antibiotics for neutropenic fever may not affect survival of canc
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Neutropenia--low levels of white blood cells called neutrophils, which fight infection--develops in more than 80 per cent of patients who receive chemotherapy for blood cancer. It occurs because chemotherapy destroys neutrophils along with tumour cells.
