The risk of cancer goes up with age, in part because aging impedes the body's ability to detect and destroy cells with ...

Scientists believe they may have found a bacterial toxin in E.coli which leaves behind specific patterns of DNA mutation ...

Fred Hutch and MSK researchers showed that tumors driven by hiccups in RNA processing can't hid from the immune system. In ...

Breast cancer is becoming increasingly treatable, but in some cases the disease can resurface even decades after a patient ...

Researchers from the Francis Crick Institute, UCL, Gustave Roussy and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), have ...

Most cancer genome studies have focused on mutations in the tumor itself and how such gene variants allow a tumor to grow unchecked. A new study takes a deep dive into inherited cancer mutations ...

Tumor-infiltrating clonal hematopoiesis (TI-CH) increased the risk of disease recurrence or death among patients with early ...

This important work presents a stochastic branching process model of tumour-immune coevolution, incorporating stochastic antigenic mutation accumulation and escape within the cancer cell population.

Researchers might have just stumbled upon a potential answer to why younger adults are getting more colorectal cancer—without ...

An international team has identified a potential microbial culprit behind the alarming rise in early-onset colorectal cancer: a bacterial toxin called colibactin. Scientists report that exposure to ...

A new study, led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, takes a deep dive into inherited cancer mutations measured in a healthy blood sample and reports how those ...
