Researchers in the lab of Jean Cook, Ph.D., chair and professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, have identified the cellular processes that occur when you take a cancer drug meant to ...

The regulation of the cell cycle is a fundamental process ensuring the accurate replication and division of cells. Central to this regulation are the Cdc25 phosphatases, which activate ...

This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the prognostic significance of CCCRGs in HCC. Notably, our research provides the first mechanistic evidence that CENPI promotes HCC malignant ...

The ability of mutations to cause cancer depends on how fast they force cells to divide, Sinai Health researchers have found. The study, led by Dr. Rod Bremner, a Senior Investigator at the ...

Immune system activation and activity is regulated through stimulatory or inhibitory ligand-receptor interactions collectively termed immune checkpoints. 1 Stimulatory interactions give the immune ...

One disease that arises from disruptions in the cell cycle is cancer. After a series of events, a normal cell begins to divide uncontrollably and becomes a tumour cell. Breast tumours are a complex ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Humans have been attempting to combat cancer since the time of the Ancient Egyptians, and recent decades have seen remarkable progress. However, tumor cells have developed sophisticated ways to evade ...

In a new paper published in Cancer Research, researchers at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center have shown that targeting a protein called TACC3 (transforming acidic coiled-coil containing protein 3) can ...
