Researchers working on an incurable blood cancer can now use a new lab model that could make testing potential new treatments and diagnostics easier and quicker, new research has found. Working with ...

A study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene ...

Scientists from A*STAR Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (A*STAR IMCB) have identified why certain lung cancer cells become highly resistant to treatment after developing mutations in a key gene ...

Labrador retrievers are dogs that are known as friendly and outgoing companions that are good for families. They are larger dogs that usually weigh between 55 and 80 pounds. New research has ...

HHMI Investigator Kevan Shokat and his lab are charting new therapies to outmaneuver drug resistance and better target common cancer cell mutations.

A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the first time, in a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine and the ...

Scientists have revealed parts of the genome that are especially vulnerable to mutations that occur very early on in development. These areas are in the initial portions of genes, where the cell tends ...

Drugs targeting mutations in the anaplastic lymphoma kinase gene (ALK) are already useful in lung cancer, but they may also find a use in the treatment of leukemias. ALK mutations were found in two ...
