Cancer stem cells similar to normal stem cells can thwart anti-cancer agents
Current cancer therapies often succeed at initially eliminating the bulk of the disease, including all rapidly proliferating cells, but are eventually thwarted because they cannot eliminate a small reservoir of multiple-drug-resistant tumor cells, called cancer stem cells, which ultimately become the source of disease recurrence and eventual... view more...

Quality of life for lab animals
THE drive to improve the lives of laboratory animals is having an unforeseen effect. Enriching the living conditions of rats, mice and other animals changes both their behaviour and their physiology, new studies show. This will have an increasingly important effect on the outcome of scientific experiments, including drugs trials.... view more... (2002-03-06)
