A pioneering study has unveiled that the 3D organization of DNA can influence the progression of the aggressive brain tumor known as glioblastoma. Having identified the factors that glioblastoma uses ...

A new research study shows that cerebrospinal fluid reduces current treatment efficacy in brain cancer and identifies new therapeutic opportunities. Cerebrospinal fluid, the clear colourless liquid ...

Glioblastoma is the most common type of brain tumor that affects adults and, unfortunately, still remains incurable. In a new study, researchers have demonstrated that a specific mitochondrial ...

Researchers have created the most comprehensive atlases of human brain cells to date. The studies provide clues on different brain diseases and give hope for medical advancements in the future, such ...

A new study has revealed a crucial link between the TUG1 gene and the ability of cancer cells to proliferate under high-stress conditions. Targeting this gene with a new therapy suppressed tumor ...

Scientists have created a new zebrafish xenograft platform to screen for novel treatments for an aggressive brain tumor called glioblastoma, according to a new ...

A new study has for the first time exhaustively analyzed neutrophils that reside in brain tumors, detailing how the immune cells support brain cancer survival and how they're manipulated by the ...

Tumor vaccines can help the body fight cancer. These vaccines alert the patient's immune system to proteins that are carrying cancer-typical alterations. Physicians and cancer researchers have ...

Researchers have discovered a new way to target and kill cancer cells in hard-to-treat brain tumours using electrically charged molecules to trigger self-destruction, that could be developed into a ...

Researchers have designed a device that can help test treatments in patients with gliomas, a type of tumor that originates in the brain or spinal ...

A study sheds new light on why tumors that have spread to the brain from other parts of the body respond to immunotherapy while glioblastoma, an aggressive cancer that originates in the brain, does ...

Scientists discovered that anti-CTLA-4 immunotherapy extended the lives of mice with glioblastoma by causing specialized CD4+ T immune cells to 1) infiltrate the brain and 2) tell brain-resident ...

A new boron agent drastically improves the effectiveness of boron neutron capture therapy for glioblastoma. The agent is selectively absorbed by brain tumor cells, exhibits enhanced blood retention, ...

New AI tool enables in-surgery genomic profiling of gliomas, the most aggressive and most common brain tumors. This information offers critical clues about how aggressive a cancer is, its future ...

A new vaccine boosts the response of engineered CAR-T cells and helps the immune system generate T cells that target other tumor antigens. The researchers found this approach made it more likely that ...

A group led by researchers at Nagoya University in Japan used nanowires to develop a technology for capturing cell-free DNA from cancer cells in urine samples. Using their technique, they captured ...

Folate-based radiopharmaceuticals can be used in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to detect folate receptors in brain tumours. The discovery of folate receptors and their exploitation ...

A new, biodegradable ultrasound far more powerful than previous devices could make brain cancers more treatable, researchers ...

Researchers are describing the results of a recent clinical trial -- a breakthrough in glioblastoma treatment with the help of a modified cold virus injected directly into the tumor. When combined ...

Scientists have shown that a new targeted therapy drug can extend the amount of time people with a subtype of glioma are on treatment without their cancer worsening. The finding suggests a possible ...
