Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan studied what happens when macrophages—a type of immune cell—encounter dying cancer cells in tumors and discovered a mechanism that accelerates tumor growth.

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, marked by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. What makes it ...

New research has revealed that a single session of weight training can help fight breast cancer. Researchers at Edith Cowan University in Australia investigated how resistance training and ...

Small cell lung cancer cells that metastasize to the brain cozy up to neurons and form working electrical connections, called synapses, according to an upcoming study led by Stanford Medicine ...

A vigorous workout can spark anti-cancer proteins, cut cancer cell growth, and help survivors fight recurrence by reducing inflammation and improving body composition. Intense exercise sparks ...

Experts discuss the small but promising study.

Exercising muscles pumps out substances that can suppress the growth of breast cancer cells, according to an important new study of exercise and cancer. The study, published last month, involved 32 ...

New study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most powerful genetic "on switches" in cancer cells, called super-enhancers, drive ...

Researchers at the Van Andel Institute suggest that the routes cancer cells use to process different nutrients deeply influence cell behavior. They discovered an alternate, or non-canonical, path by ...

Researchers have created the first complete map showing how hundreds of mutations in a key cancer gene affect tumor growth.

When cancer cells die, macrophages consume them and produce inflammatory cytokines. This activates JAK and STAT proteins in living cancer cells, enabling them to produce their own Upd3 and creating a ...
