New research from the University of Oklahoma, published today in Cancer Cell, describes for the first time a "triangle regulation theory" of cancer-induced cachexia and anorexia. Cachexia is a ...

Cancer researchers working on immunotherapies have made a big discovery: SLAMF6, a molecule on the surface of immune cells ...

After nearly 40 years of research on how Listeria bacteria manipulate our cells and battle our immune system to cause listeriosis, Daniel Portnoy and his colleagues have discovered a way to turn the ...

A cancer treatment has been reformulated into a simple injection after its key components behaved differently in ...

Within tumors in the human body, there are immune cells (macrophages) capable of fighting cancer, but they have been unable to perform their roles properly due to suppression by the tumor. A KAIST ...

Squamous cell carcinoma treatment varies by stage, involving surgery, radiation, and systemic therapies based on cancer progression and patient health. Stage 1 focuses on tumor removal, Stage 2 ...

CAR T-cell therapy, which transforms patients’ own immune cells into cancer-fighting warriors, has revolutionized how physicians treat cancer, especially blood cancers. “These patients can be cured ...

Scientists at UCLA have developed an "off-the-shelf" cell-based immunotherapy that was able to track down and kill pancreatic cancer cells even after they had spread to other organs. In a mouse study, ...

Researchers discovered a way to keep T cells from wearing out during the fight against cancer, and the approach could make immune-based treatments far more powerful. They found that tumors use a ...

Groundbreaking studies reveal the potential of cell therapies to achieve long-term remission in HPV-associated cancers, transforming treatment options for patients. At the 2025 Society for ...

The researchers used lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to deliver cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS) mRNA to cancer cells. This results in production of the endogenous stimulator of interferon genes ...
