Engineer designs micro-endoscope to seek out early signs of cancer
Physicians currently insert camera-equipped endoscopes into patients to hunt visible abnormalities, such as tumors, in the gastrointestinal tract and internal organs. Huikai Xie, an associate professo...

Read moreParadoxical protein might prevent cancer
Molecular signal pathways that stimulate the division of stem cells are generally the same as those active in tumour growth. This limits the possibility of treating cancer as the drugs that kill cance...

They say their findings, presented today at the annual meeting of the American College of Gastroenterology in San Diego, Calif., are not only important because a large group (2,430) of patients partic...
Medical Engineering | Read moreScientists Discover Gene that 'Cancer-Proofs' Rodent's Cells
Despite a 30-year lifespan that gives ample time for cells to grow cancerous, a small rodent species called a naked mole rat has never been found with tumors of any kind—and now biologists at the Univ...

Physics and Astronomy | Read moreSkin cells may provide early warning for cancer risk elsewhere in body
While some scientists have argued that cancer is such a complex genetic disease that you'd have to sequence a person's complete genome in order to predict his or her cancer risk, a Universit...
Health and Medicine | Read moreUF researchers find triggers in cells' transition from colitis to cancer
Scientists observed that cancer stem cells taken from the gastrointestinal system in patients with a chronic digestive disease called ulcerative colitis will transform into cancerous tumors in mice....
Life Sciences | Read moreStanford researchers' magnetic nanotags spot cancer in mice earlier than current methods
Searching for biomarkers that can warn of diseases such as cancer while they are still in their earliest stage is likely to become far easier thanks to an innovative biosensor chip developed by Stanfo...
