Cells become cancerous when the mechanism that controls cell division stops working correctly. This allows the cells to divide out of control, which can lead to tumors in place, or to cells traveling through the body to form tumors in new places.`...

How cancer-causing bacteria force your cells to dieS.E. Gould
Well, cells are much like us although a single unit of us and nevertheless die like us. They are either murdered/killed (Necrosis) or they commit suicide (Apoptosis) also called programmed cell death. Let’s discuss these two entities and their subtypes. Necrosis (killed) – Killing is almo...
“Cancer cells inside the body live in a complex environment or neighborhood. Where the tumor cell resides and who its neighbors are influenced its response and resistance to therapy,” said senior author Dr. Peter S. Nelson, a member of theHutchinson Cancer Center‘s Human Biology Division. ...
“We hit him with everything, the whole kitchen sink,” said Krina Patel, the director of the myeloma cell therapy program at MD Anderson Cancer Center and Goltzene’s clinician. She tried putting him on a clinical trial for an immunotherapy drug. “It blew right through him. He quickly ...
Apoptosis has been established as a mechanism of anti-cancer defense. Members of the BCL-2 family are critical mediators of apoptotic cell death in health and disease, often found to be deregulated in cancer and believed to lead to the survival of malign
Here's the answer to the frightening and complex question, "How does cancer kill you?" It’s a hard question to ask, but sometimes it’s necessary.
in some scenarios, unedited cells might avoid harmful off-target effects and thus fare better than edited cells and eventually outnumber them. Researchers recently found thatedited blood stem cells can die out overtime, suggesting blood-disorder treatments may become less effective in the long haul...
(phospholipase D) from doing its job. Left unchecked, PLD keeps cancer cells from dying off (a process known as apoptosis). So when honokiol blocks it, cancer cells die.Increased PLD activity has been linked to several cancers (breast, kidney and colon, for example) and cancer cell lines...
