Genetic ancestry may play a key role in how acral melanoma, a rare and aggressive type of skin cancer, develops and behaves, ...

The research reveals something fundamental about cancer. It’s not a sudden event that instantly produces a tumour. Instead, cancer develops through a slow, multi-step process with detectable warning ...

Genetic ancestry may play a key role in how acral melanoma, a rare and aggressive type of skin cancer, develops and behaves, with important ...

Researchers developed a new method to predict how cancer cells evolve by gaining or losing whole chromosomes. Chromosome changes create rapid shifts that help tumors grow, adapt and resist treatment.

Prostate cancer often earns the label “silent killer” because it can develop and progress for years without producing noticeable symptoms. Understanding this timeline becomes crucial for men seeking ...

Scientists have pinpointed a “Big Bang” moment in bowel cancer—when cells first evade the immune system. This early immune escape locks in how the cancer will behave as it grows. The discovery could ...

Scientists have developed a tool that can predict how bowel cancer adapts to treatment – helping researchers to design new personalized drugs that will keep patients living well for longer. A team ...

A new and important genetic discovery, which sheds light on how prostate cancers develop and spread, has been made by an international research team led by scientists at The University of Nottingham.

Cancer often infiltrates a person’s life long before anyone knows it. By the time symptoms arise and an examination indicates the worst, the disease has often been growing for months and sometimes ...

Heart cancer is a rare and serious condition in which abnormal cells grow uncontrollably on or near the heart, forming a tumor. Unlike more common cancers affecting the lungs, breast, or colon, heart ...

Researchers found that pancreatic pre-cancer cells mimic dementia by forming clumps of proteins due to faulty recycling processes. These insights could shed light on why pancreatic cancer develops so ...

Researchers led by Xian-Yang Qin at the RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences (IMS) in Japan have developed a score ...
