Ovarian cancer kills more women than any other gynecological cancer. Most patients receive their diagnosis only after the ...

MD Anderson studies reveal how cancer cells rewire metabolism to spread. A glucose–fructose mix promotes colorectal metastasis via cholesterol pathways, while fatty-acid oxidation driven by ACBP ...

Ovarian cancer spreads fast by recruiting the body’s own protective cells to clear the way—and that secret alliance may finally be its undoing.

Brazilian researchers have found that stellate pancreatic cells produce periostin, which reshapes surrounding tissue and allows tumors to spread more easily, helping explain why the disease is so ...

Researchers have discovered how pancreatic cancer reprograms its surroundings to spread quickly and stealthily. By using a protein called periostin, the tumor remodels nearby tissue and invades nerves ...

Cancer becomes far more dangerous when it spreads beyond its original site. Some cancers stay in one place, while others travel through the body, settling in new areas and making treatment much harder ...

Bowel cancer cells can “shapeshift” to resemble skin or muscle cells to enable them to spread aggressively, according to scientists who have hailed it as a major breakthrough they hope can help treat ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have uncovered a strategy that triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells use to boost their ability to metastasize, or spread to other organs. Metastasis is ...

Cancer immunotherapy has been a game-changer, but many tumors still find ways to slip past the immune system. New research ...
