Testicular cancer gauge often not used
A standard part of testicular cancer care isn't used in more than half of all patients who have the condition, researchers at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center have found. view more (2008-03-18)
Fluorescent cancer cells to guide brain surgeons
Gliomas are malignant brain tumors that arise from glial (supporting) cells of the brain. Gliomas are often resistant to chemotherapy. view more (2009-04-06)
Promising new methods of treatment for fatal abdominal tumor
GIST is a soft-parts tumor that occurs in the abdomen but is distinguishable from gastro-intestinal cancer. Previously, surgery has been the only treatment option since this type of tumor does not respond to either chemotherapy or radiation. Scientists at the Sahlgrenska Academy at Göteborg University have now shown that the prognosis for... view more... (2003-03-17)
Tiny tool to control growing blood vessels opens new potential in tumor research
Researchers at Uppsala University have developed a new tool that makes it possible to study the signals in the body that control the generation of blood vessels. view more (2009-02-23)
New brain tumor model developed
A collaboration of researchers, led by Dr. Martine Roussel (St. Jude Children's Research Hospital), has developed a novel mouse model of medulloblastoma - the most prevalent malignant pediatric brain tumor. view more (2005-10-31)
7 years without a nose
Patients whose nose has been destroyed by a tumor or injury carry a severe psychological and social burden. Esthetic reconstruction ranges among the most challenging tasks in plastic surgery. view more (2008-11-07)
Mathematics reveals genetic pattern of tumor growth
Using mathematical theory, UC Irvine scientists have shed light on one of cancer's most troubling puzzles - how cancer cells can alter their own genetic makeup to accelerate tumor growth. view more (2007-06-25)
A new theoretical model of tumor growth and metastasis based on differences in tissue pressure
The HFSP Journal, the interdisciplinary journal for scientists conducting high quality, innovative research at the interface between biology and the physical sciences is pleased to announce that the latest article modelling of tumor growth and metastasis. view more (2009-03-24)
First of its kind report on how children with brain tumors perform at school
While children who have had brain tumors perform worse in school than healthy kids, grades in foreign language are the most affected and girls have a harder time than boys in getting good grades. view more (2007-07-17)
Freezing kidney tumors is a safe alternative to surgery
Percutaneous cryoablation, a relatively non-invasive technique that destroys tumors by freezing them, is a safe method for treating kidney tumors in selected patients who are not considered candidates for surgery, according to a new study by researchers from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. view more (2006-05-01)
Pathway links inflammation, angiogenesis and breast cancer
A well-known inflammatory protein spawns an enzyme that inactivates two tumor-suppressing genes, ultimately triggering production of new blood vessels to nourish breast cancer cells. view more (2007-08-10)
Pioneering study looks at p53's role in tumor-stroma interactions
Researchers at Emory University's Winship Cancer Institute have conducted the first comprehensive study of the role an important tumor suppressor gene plays in cancer development. view more (2006-10-26)
USC researchers discover breast cancer stem cells in bone marrow
Almost all tumor cells found in the bone marrow of early stage breast cancer patients appear to be breast cancer stem cells, suggesting the risk of disease spread for all breast cancer patients may be greater than previously thought. view more (2006-10-09)
Lowering your cholesterol may decrease your risk of cancer
Current research suggests that lowering cholesterol may block the growth of prostate tumors. The related report by Solomon et al, "Ezetimibe Is an Inhibitor of Tumor Angiogenesis," appears in the March 2009 issue of The American Journal of Pathology. view more (2009-02-24)
USC researchers develop new drug to target tumor cells and blood vessels
Researchers at the University of Southern California have identified a new drug compound that appears to target tumor cells and surrounding blood vessels without the negative side effects typically associated with Cox-2 inhibitors. view more (2009-04-20)
Barrow researchers identify a new approach to detect the early progression of brain tumors
Researchers at Barrow Neurological Institute at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center recently participated in a pilot study with the Montreal Neurological Institute that suggests a certain type of MRI scanning can detect when a patient is failing brain tumor treatment before symptoms appear. view more (2008-08-29)
SIRT1 takes down tumors
Yuan et al. have identified another anti-cancer effect of the "longevity" protein SIRT1. By speeding the destruction of the tumor promoter c-Myc, SIRT1 curbs cell division. view more (2009-04-13)
Pair of microRNA molecules controls major oncogene in most common leukemia
Researchers at Ohio State University have discovered that two microRNA (miRNA) molecules help control the oncogene responsible for a dangerous form of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL), the most common human leukemia in the world. view more (2006-12-18)
2 heads are better than 1: 2 dysfunctional DNA repair pathways kill tumor cells
Individuals who inherit two mutant copies of any one of about 12 genes that make the proteins of the Fanconi Anemia (FA) pathway develop FA, which is characterized by increased incidence of cancer and bone marrow failure, among other things. view more (2007-04-13)
USC researchers show that molecular markers predict tumor recurrence
Researchers at the University of Southern California (USC) have identified specific molecular markers that may help to predict tumor recurrence in stage II and III colon cancer patients. view more (2007-06-06)
