Compositions, kits, and methods for therapeutic screening, diagnostics, and cancer treatment based on the identification or use of the different states of cancer stem cells, including cancer stem cells in the EMT (epithelial to mesenchymal transition) MET (mesenchymal to epithelial transition), and ...
"It may be that cancer cells have the ability to adapt to regional microenvironments in the brain that allow them to colonize and progress, while other areas of the brain are inhospitable to the same cells," said Josh Neman, Ph.D., assistant professor of neurological surgery and physiology ...
Targeted treatment—A treatment that uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack specific types of cancer cells to try to minimize harm to normal cells. It can also block how cancer cells grow and spread. Some of these medications are taken by mouth and some are given through a ne...
and the University Medical Center Göttingen have now demonstrated that cells originating from different organs are differentially susceptible to activating mutations in cancer drivers: The same mutation in precursor cells of the pancreas or the bile duct leads to fundamental different outcomes. ...
What are the Different Types of Breast Cancer?By K T Solis Updated: Mar 03, 2024 Views: 71,718 Share Breast cancer is one or more malignant tumors that develop in the breast cells. The cancer cells that form the tumor begin in the breast tissue and spread throughout the body. Although...
All women are at risk of getting breast cancer, of which there are several types. These are differentiated in different ways – depending on how the cancer cells look under the microscope (called histology); on whether the cancer cells have certain characteristics (receptor statu...

aThe DNA in cancer cells can be different from the DNA in the rest of the cells of your body. Cells taken from your blood and bone marrow will be tested to determine how the multiple myeloma cells are responding to treatment and to determine if there are specific genetic markers that help...
Dr Larkin said: “The idea of personalised medicine is to tailor treatments to suit individual patients. This study in kidney cancer has shown significant molecular changes between different parts of the same tumour. We have also seen differences between primary kidney tumours and cancer cells that...
The findings show that cancer cells change their migration modes far more often than had been previously thought, he says. "While the constant switching we saw in the breast cancer cells we studied doesn't necessarily maximize their speed in a particular type of tissue, it allows for the cell...
