Scientists at the University of Cambridge believe they may have discovered a surprising new way to slow the spread of brain cancer. Instead of targeting cancer cells directly, their research suggests ...

Reprogramming cancer cells into cancer stem cells using synthetic polymer hydrogels could open exciting opportunities for drug development and personalized medicine. While advances in cancer ...

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialised immune cells. The discovery, published in ...

Studies have shown that cancer cells can 'trick' the immune system into believing they are healthy and prevent themselves ...

The aim of immunotherapy strategies is to leverage cells in the patient's own immune system to destroy tumor cells. Using a preclinical model, scientists from the Institut Pasteur and Inserm ...
