While metabolomics is the large-scale comprehensive profiling of metabolites and other small molecules in the context of ...

Cancer cell biology unravels the molecular and cellular underpinnings of tumour formation, progression and metastasis. At its core, cancer arises as a result of dysregulated cell cycle control, ...

Randomness inside cells can decide whether a cancer returns after chemotherapy or whether an infection survives antibiotics.

A protein once thought to simply help cancer cells avoid death turns out to do much more. MCL1 actively drives cancer ...

A new paper published in Nature on June 4 shines light on how an enigmatic part of male aging—the loss of Y chromosomes—is connected with a higher risk of dying from cancer. In an analysis of 4,127 ...

Spatial biology first entered the omics scene about a decade ago. Since then, the technology has generated significant buzz both inside and outside of the lab—beyond its contributions to science. The ...

Exploring biology in its native environment is perhaps the ideal scenario for generating better hypotheses about the cellular interactions that influence—and drive—healthy and diseased states, ...

Circulating tumor cells were first described in 1869 by Thomas Ashworth, an Australian pathologist who observed them in a peripheral blood sample taken from a patient with metastatic cancer. 1 They ...
