Novel robot-assisted surgery technique improves removal of small kidney cancer tumors
Jul 11, 2014
Roughly 50,000 Americans are diagnosed with kidney cancer per year. Most of these cancers are small tumors (small renal masses) that are often found during screening for other problems. Read More
Vitamin D found to increase bowel cancer survival odds

Bowel cancer patients with high levels of vitamin D in their blood are more likely to survive the disease, a study shows. Read More
Cancer's cellular factories can be sent into overdrive by signal
Jul 11, 2014
A network of signals active in almost all types of cancer sends the protein factories in our cells into overdrive, and may help fuel a tumour's uncontrolled growth, new research suggests. Read More
New model offers important tool for exploring DNA-copying process in multicellular life
Jul 11, 2014
When a cell divides, it must first make a copy of its DNA, a fundamental step in the life cycle of cells that occurs billions of times a day in the human body. Read More
Vasectomy linked with aggressive prostate cancer risk
Jul 10, 2014
A study that followed men for over 20 years finds vasectomy is linked to a small increased risk of prostate cancer and a stronger risk for aggressive forms of the disease. Read More

Jul 10, 2014
Results from a Phase II study that compared volasertib plus low-dose cytarabine (LDAC), a form of chemotherapy, versus LDAC alone in older patients with untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were... Read More
Wake-up call for more research into cell metabolism
Jul 10, 2014
More scientific research into the metabolism of stromal support cells and immune cells - and the role of the metabolism of these cell types in the development of diseases - could open new... Read More
Virginia Tech research teams finds new markers for breast cancer
Jul 10, 2014
The fight against breast cancer is never-ending, but Virginia Tech researchers in the Medical Informatics and Systems Division at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute have found additional... Read More
Discovery of gene mutation may lead to treatment for liver cancer
Jul 10, 2014
Two genetic mutations in liver cells may drive tumor formation in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), the second most common form of liver cancer, according to a research published in the July... Read More
