The ability of mutations to cause cancer depends on how fast they force cells to divide, Sinai Health researchers have found. The study, led by Dr. Rod Bremner, a Senior Investigator at the ...

The review emphasizes how breakthroughs in understanding the molecular mechanisms of cell cycle regulation have paved the way for the development of targeted anti-cancer agents. Notably, inhibitors of ...

Cancer begins when mutations in specific genes override the body’s built-in controls on cell division, allowing rogue cells ...

A hidden clue may explain why some mutated cells become cancerous and others don’t: how fast they divide. A new study from researchers at Sinai Health in Toronto reveals that the total time it takes ...

Pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages involved in immune responses accelerate the progression of melanoma through the extracellular ...

In 2016, Colinda Scheele, a cancer biologist at Catholic University Leuven, was studying how chemotherapy affects breast cancer cells in mice. However, she observed an inconsistency: Some cell ...

A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...
