Preventing the cell’s protein factories from making the notorious cancer-causing protein MYC could stop out-of-control tumors. For decades, scientists have tried to stop cancer by disabling the ...

For decades, scientists have tried to stop cancer by disabling the mutated proteins that are found in tumors. But many cancers manage to overcome this and continue growing. Now, scientists think they ...

The cancer gene MYC camouflages tumors by suppressing alarm signals that normally activate the immune system. This finding from a new study offers a promising way to improve existing cancer therapies ...

The growth protein, MYC, was consistently found with RBM42, which spurs MYC production, in human pancreatic tumors. Above, microscopy for MYC (red) and RBM42 (green) in a representative pancreatic ...

When cancer-driving proteins resist various treatments, Northwestern University scientists have uncovered a new solution. Don’t fight them-throw them in the cellular trash. In a new study, scientists ...

Certain cancer-driving proteins resist nearly all existing treatments, making many aggressive cancers effectively untreatable. Researchers devised a strategy to use protein-like polymers called ...

Cancer cells are characterized by their aggressiveness: they grow rapidly and spread to other parts of the body. To enable this, numerous mechanisms come into play, and one of them involves a protein ...
