Researchers have developed a new class of antibodies that amplify the immune system’s ability to fight cancer. By clustering ...

Colorectal cancer breaks the usual immune rules, with certain regulatory T cells linked to improved survival. In many solid tumors, having a large number of regulatory T (Treg) cells is linked to ...

Researchers found in mice that multiple nutrients and cancer cell characteristics work together to control the spread of ...

Lung cancer remains the world’s deadliest cancer, and cigarette smoke is its chief culprit. Chemicals in tobacco, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), damage DNA and trigger the mutations ...

For decades, cancer research focused mainly on genetics and a handful of lifestyle choices, such as smoking and heavy alcohol use. But scientists now agree that inherited mutations explain only a ...
