Scientists in Brazil are refining the design of CAR-engineered immune cells to make them more precise and powerful against cancer.

Tumours have developed many strategies and tricks to gain advantages in the body. Led by cell biology professor Sabine Werner, researchers at ETH Zurich have now discovered another surprising trick ...

Since scientists first discovered that human immune cells could be modified to become cancer-fighting agents, they've been trying to engineer a cell that's effective against solid tumors, which ...

A protein made by stressed cancer cells helps lung and pancreatic tumors evade the immune system, a new study shows.

Cancer cells can brainwash their neighbors. Like the CIA deploying secret agents to turn an enemy, tumors use a similar strategy to manipulate nearby cells. The tumors’ agents are mitochondria, the ...

When cancer-driving proteins resist various treatments, Northwestern University scientists have uncovered a new solution. Don't fight them—throw them in the cellular trash. In a new study published in ...

Using AI, scientists have built a “GPS” for cancer-fighting immune cells. It’s a molecular navigation system that helped the cells lock onto cancer, kind of like Google Maps guiding travelers to a new ...

Scientists have uncovered an unexpected reason why some cancers return after initially responding to treatment.

Lung cancer cells are able to take advantage of a person’s immune system, specifically T cells, to protect the tumor, according to new research recently published in Cancer Immunology Research.

Researchers have created tiny metal-based particles that push cancer cells over the edge while leaving healthy cells mostly unharmed. The particles work by increasing internal stress in cancer cells ...
