A research team led by Professor Chen Peng from the College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering at Peking University has ...

KAIST researchers have developed a way to reprogram immune cells already inside tumors into cancer-killing machines. A drug ...

Plasticity in cancer cells describes their inherent ability to undergo alterations and turn certain features on and off at different times. This flexibility sometimes occurs as a result of epigenetic ...

Cancer cells survive therapy by dynamically rewiring their metabolism in response to nutrient availability, ...

“There has never really been an integrated explanation as to why cancer cells develop plasticity,” said Antonio Iavarone, M.D. “That’s what our study does. We’ve now revealed how the plasticity of ...

The study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — ...

Gene expression governs whether neuroblastoma tumor cells exist in either the adrenergic (differentiated and sensitive to treatment) or mesenchymal (less differentiated and therapy-resistant) cell ...

Immune cells called B cells make antibodies that fight off invading bacteria, viruses and other foreign substances. During their preparation for this battle, B cells transiently revert to a more ...
