Metastatic inefficiency is due primarily to the regulation of cancer-cell growth in secondary sites. Metastases can occur many years after primary cancer treatment. Tumour dormancy might be due to ...

Cancer a life-threatening disease can spread or metastasise from its original location to other parts of the body The lungs ...

More than half of cancer patients in whom the cancer spreads beyond the primary site have lung metastases. What makes the lungs such a tempting place for cancer cells? To find out, the team of Prof.

Furin is identified as the key enzyme responsible for cleaving the apelin precursor. Inhibiting this cleavage could serve as ...

Every cell in the body normally has its fixed place as part of a tissue structure. Except for a few cell types, such as blood ...

Yibin Kang, a professor in the Department of Molecular Biology, discussed new breast cancer research in his lab.

The following is a summary of “Future Directions in the Evaluation and Management of newly diagnosed metastatic cancer,” ...

Blood clots form in response to signals from the lungs of cancer patients—not from other organ sites, as previously thought—according to a preclinical study by Weill Cornell Medicine, Memorial Sloan ...

dissolves clusters of circulating breast cancer cells in the blood, thus reducing the risk of metastases formation. Certain tumour types do not remain at their point of origin but spread ...

When stage 4 pancreatic cancer progresses through metastasis to abdominal organs and potentially spreads to distant sites ...

This suppresses the Rho-GTPase-mediated mechanisms of metastasis. As a result, tumor cells can no longer migrate undisturbed and cannot attach themselves to other sites. Unlike many cancer drugs ...
