Researchers have discovered how pancreatic cancer reprograms its surroundings to spread quickly and stealthily. By using a protein called periostin, the tumor remodels nearby tissue and invades nerves ...

Brazilian researchers have found that stellate pancreatic cells produce periostin, which reshapes surrounding tissue and allows tumors to spread more easily, helping explain why the disease is so ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have identified a targetable driver of brain metastases in ...

A hidden communication network between brain cells and glioblastoma tumors may be key to slowing this aggressive cancer.

New research shows that cancer cells don’t just grow; they adapt when stressed. When squeezed inside tissues, they transform into more invasive, drug-resistant versions of themselves. A protein called ...

New research led by King's College London suggests that a simple test already used in clinics could provide valuable ...

Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer is cancer that’s only in the inner lining of your bladder. It hasn’t grown into the muscle wall. Your doctor may also call it superficial bladder cancer, urothelial ...

A fluorescent probe for visualizing the signaling dynamics in metastatic cancer cells has been developed. A research team at the University of Turku (Finland), led by Johanna Ivaska and James Conway, ...

In research that could shed light on the growth and formation of complex tissue architectures, Brown University engineers ...

Pancreatic cancer is lethal not only because it grows, but because it spreads early and aggressively. New research suggests the tumour can reprogramme surrounding tissue to create physical and ...
