In the new JEM study, teams used a computer-based screening approach to identify a drug, named C26, that activates NR2F1.

Scientists have developed a new approach to stopping viral infections: a so-called live-attenuated, replication-defective DNA virus vaccine.

Cigarette smoking is overwhelmingly the main cause of lung cancer, yet only a minority of smokers develop the disease.

Treatment for lung cancer has improved in recent years — and a new Edith Cowan University study has found how to make it even more effective

Albert Einstein College of Medicine research team used different human immune cells known as natural killer (NK) cells with dramatic results

T cells snuggle up to targeted diseased cells and form an intimate junction between the two, called the ‘cytotoxic immunological synapse’.

The work also shows how a new technique—single-cell analysis—can detect tumours at very early stages, or a predisposition to developing them

New research about how cancer-related proteins bind the metal and how they interact with other proteins, opens up potential new drug targets

Stanford University researchers have discovered a rapid and sustainable way to synthetically produce a promising cancer-fighting compound.

Scientists may never find the elixir of life, but one day, protecting our cells from aging may be as easy as taking a pill.

Researchers developed a new synthetic molecule that combines a tumor-targeting agent with another molecule that triggers immune activation.

Cigarette smoking is overwhelmingly the main cause of lung cancer, yet only a minority of smokers develop the disease.

An AI-based home screening test to detect oral and throat cancers from saliva samples is now available in the United States

A new therapeutic approach prevents the growth of metastatic tumors in mice by forcing cancer cells into a dormant state.

In a new way to treat triple-negative breast cancer, researchers have differentiated cancer cells to convert them into less harmful cells.

Immunotherapy has emerged as a major weapon in the battle against non-small cell lung cancer, making up 80-85 per cent of all lung cancers.

You may not realize it, but each time you recall a memory—like your first time riding a bike or walking into your high school prom.

As a part of our immune defences, cytotoxic T cells – or killer T cells – seek out and destroy cells that are infected or cancerous.

A University at Buffalo-led research team has shown that a protein is effective at reversing aging in skeletal muscle cells.

Research reports for the first time a pathway that begins in the gut and ends with a potent pro-inflammatory toxin in brain cells.
