Cancer is a disease characterized by the transformation of a healthy cell into a malignant one with very different characteristics, such as the ability to divide in an uncontrolled manner. In recent decades, much research has uncovered various molecular alterations responsible for this conversion from ...
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. There are many different types of cancer, and the specific cause of each type can vary. However, there are some general things that can contribute to … Full Article Mouth Cancer Is it ...
What we think of as "cancer" is actually a group of more than one hundred separate diseases. These diseases are all characterized by an abnormal and unregulated growth of cells. This growth destroys surrounding body tissues and may spread to other parts of the body in a process that is know...
such as low nutrients, low oxygen and high acidity, may lead pre-malignant cells to express a Warburg phenotype in order to survive and thrive within these hostile conditions. To test their theory, the research team subjected low glycolytic breast cancer cells to these...
Since many forms of cancer are characterized by rapidly dividing cells, they can sometimes be treated with radiation therapy. Typically, radioactive wires or vials are placed near or around the tumor. For deep tumors, or tumors in inoperable places, high-intensity X-rays are focused on the tum...

In this stained micrograph, strands of activated hepatic stellate cells (blue) create characteristic “chicken wire” fibrosis in the liver and, in this case, a condition called steatohepatitis, which can be a precursor to subsequent cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver failure.

The actions of regulatory T cells constitute one mechanism of peripheral tolerance. Type 1 diabetes A chronic autoimmune disease that is characterized by the T-cell-mediated destruction of β-cells (which secrete insulin) in the pancreas. Individuals with type 1 diabetes develop hyperglycaemia and ...
