An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...
Scientists at Oregon State University have engineered a powerful new nanomaterial that zeroes in on cancer cells and destroys them from the inside out. Designed to exploit cancer’s unique ...
Cancer cells are often described as “glutamine addicted,” relying heavily on this amino acid to fuel growth. But new research reveals how some tumors sidestep this vulnerability.
Structural nanomedicine — what helped give us the COVID vaccine — may now be the key to a potent blood cancer treatment that’s had remarkable early results.
Biomolecular condensates were long believed to be simple liquid blobs inside cells. Researchers have now uncovered that some are actually supported by fine protein filaments forming an internal ...
Cancer occurs when cells ignore normal growth controls, often due to genetic changes that alter how your genes function.
Human DNA constantly refolds in 3D space, and these looping dynamics regulate gene expression and cell identity.
