Why do alterations of certain genes cause cancer only in specific organs of the human body? Scientists have now demonstrated that cells originating from different organs are differentially susceptible ...
A study demonstrates that the 'previous state' of blood stem cells plays a decisive role in the subtype of leukemia that develops. The new technique, called STRACK, allows monitoring of the evolution ...

Not all cancer mutations are equal: Mutation strength in a single gene shapes tumor behavior
Cancer is often thought of as a single disease. Yet even tumors that arise in the same organ can follow very different genetic paths. A new study shows that these differences can sometimes be traced ...
A common mutation in the KRAS gene is associated with improved overall survival in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) compared with other variants, in part because the mutation appears to lead to ...
Cyclophosphamide, Thalidomide, and Dexamethasone as Initial Therapy for Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma in a Middle-Income Country: 7-Year Follow-Up A total of 962 cases of CML on ...
New research exploring theories of ageing has found that small mutations accumulating in DNA are unlikely to be fully responsible for this process. The research, a collaboration between the Wellcome ...
Cancer often manifests well after reproduction has occurred, and when it occurs earlier is often extraordinarily malignant and kills BEFORE reproduction without aggressive medical and/or surgical ...
For years scientists have tried to find a gene for conditions like schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s and autism. But the real source could lie in a much more complex genetic puzzle. When Mike McConnell ...
