Cancer cells rarely begin stealthily. Quite the contrary, they alert the immune system to their presence by displaying chemical red flags on their membranes. When detected, the body's defences can swoop in and destroy renegade cells before they can do significant damage. Lipids, fatty molecu
Nine times out of ten, metastasis is the cause of cancer deaths. This is the point when the primary tumour has sent out cells, like seeds, and invaded other organs of the body. Despite significant advancements in the treatment of primary tumours, medicine remains mainly powerless against met
According to a recent study, medications intended to treat blood and other malignancies may also increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy for low-grade brain tumours in adults.
A private hospital in Gurugram has achieved a patent for its innovative Medanta Anterior Oblique Lateral Oblique (MAOLO) template. This device can help tackle tumours as large as 100 cm and even larger.
A research group at the University of Seville's Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology has achieved great progress by identifying the critical role of the protein Galectin-3 in the progression of several forms of brain tumours.
The Apollo Hospital in Delhi, which has been the forerunner of healthcare and challenged limits to providing exceptional care, has unveiled ZAP-X, an innovative technology designed for the treatment of brain tumours in sessions lasting 30 minutes.
Researcher Paul Dent of Virginia Commonwealth University's Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology found that tumours that have metastasized to distant locations, such as the brain, are most often impossible to treat and cure, despite recent successes in some tumour types such as NS
Water cycling across membrane transporters is a characteristic of cell metabolism and has the potential to be very diagnostic in the characterisation of tumours and other illnesses.
A revolutionary study performed by UNIST's Department of Biological Sciences' Professor Sebyung Kang and Professor Sung Ho Park has shown a significant advance in cancer therapy. The study team has successfully generated novel "NK cell-engaging nanodrones" capable of specifically targeting
New Delhi [India], December 29: Head and neck cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the internal tissue of the mouth, throat, sinuses, salivary gland, neck and other areas. There is a key advantage of modern imaging technology which provides cross-sectional images that show any abnormali
Cancerous tumours consist of a mixture of cells, the most important of which are cancer stem cells. These cells are capable of establishing new cancerous tumours by evading the immune response.
