Scientists have discovered that a rare “mirror-image” version of the amino acid cysteine can dramatically slow the growth of ...

For her Ph.D. at VUB and KULeuven, Aarushi Caro created a kind of systematics for dendritic cells, a special group of immune cells in the fight against cancer. Until now, there was a lot of confusion ...

Researchers mapped distinct cancer cell communities within supratentorial ependymoma tumors, showing how different cell types drive tumor growth, mobility, and interactions with the brain environment.

The finding suggests other chemo drugs, too, may be making cancer cells cause a surprising immune-system reaction.

New research published in Nature finds that tumor cells within supratentorial ependymomas (SE)—an aggressive childhood brain cancer—cluster into distinct tumor cell populations. Much like a ...
