Researchers at Duke University have shown that blocking an enzyme involved in iron regulation not only kills multiple myeloma cancer cells, but also increases the effectiveness of current therapies ...

The emergence of cancer drug resistance remains one of the most pressing problems in cancer care and there is a critical need ...

Researchers uncovered a powerful weakness in lung cancer by shutting down a protein that helps tumors survive stress. When this protein, FSP1, was blocked, lung tumors in mice shrank dramatically, ...

Researchers have discovered how to block cells dying, in a finding that could lead to new treatments for neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. The team has identified a small ...

Neurons (blue) rooted in the substantia nigra provide dopamine (dark green dots) to striatal neurons (red). Stressed dopamine-secreting neurons (blue) emit chemical distress signals (upward arrows).

Researchers have discovered how to block cells dying, in a finding that could lead to new treatments for neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. The team at WEHI, including ...

Maintaining a healthy immune system depends on the body’s ability to control inflammation. But when this process spirals out of balance, it can damage cells and drive serious diseases like heart ...

Scientists have discovered a critical weakness in prostate cancer cells involving two enzymes, PDIA1 and PDIA5, that protect ...
