The immune systems of patients with cancer are highly disturbed, and people who have a larger number of immune cells in the blood, have a better survival rate, finds a new study using a pioneering technique developed by scientists from UCL and Francis Crick Institute. Tool described in Nature GeneticsIt is called immune lymphocyte estimation […]
The new research article was published in volume 16 January 21, 2025, entitled “CFDNA release dynamics assessment during colorectal cancer surgery”. Researchers at the University of Brasília studied how the levels of DNA free from cell (CFDNA) in blood change before, during and after colorectal cancer surgery. The study showed that CFDNA levels grow significantly […]
Scientists from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new dye that can strongly absorb the second radiation near IR and transform it into heat. Starting from the dye of the bile pigments family, they designed a unique ring structure that can tie ROD and Iridium. Measurements and modeling revealed a strong second absorption of close […]
In patients with high-risk HER2-positive breast cancer after surgery or adjuvant therapy, treatment with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) reduced the long-term risk of death or invasive disease by 46% and improved survival compared with trastuzumab alone, according to final trial results KATHERINE phase III clinical trial conducted by scientists from the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC […]
Scientists from POSTECH and Kyungpook National University have developed a novel inhalation drug delivery system for lung cancer using mucoadhesive protein nanoparticles inspired by the adhesive properties of marine mussels. This work was initiated by Professor Hyung Joon Cha (Department of Chemical Engineering and Graduate School of Convergence Science and Technology with specialization in Medical […]
A new study led by researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center shows that many cases of high-risk, non-metastatic, hormone-dependent prostate cancer may be more advanced than previously thought. The study, published in , found that almost half of high-risk prostate cancer patients previously classified as non-metastatic on conventional imaging actually have metastatic […]
According to the World Health Organization, in 2022 alone, over 20 million people will be diagnosed with cancer and almost 10 million will die from it. Although the scope of cancer is vast, the answer to more effective treatments may lie in a microscopic cell. A paper published by the Lele Lab, led by Texas […]
In a recent study published in the journal researchers are analyzing tumor architecture, cell composition, and the microenvironment in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) using spatial transcriptomics and histomorphological analysis. A total of nine TNBC spatial archetypes were identified and associated with disease outcomes and actionable characteristics, as well as a tertiary lymphatic gene […]
