A small number of cancer cells with the ability to change their identities and behaviors appear to be a key driver of cancer ...

Plasticity in cancer cells describes their inherent ability to undergo alterations and turn certain features on and off at different times. This flexibility sometimes occurs as a result of epigenetic ...

Cancer cells expand through mutations – but not just through mutations. They also change their behavior in the absence of underlying genetic alterations. Such plasticity helps the cells both adapt to ...

Pioneering Cancer Plasticity Atlas will Help Predict Response to Cancer Therapies The Wellcome Sanger Institute, Parse Biosciences, and the Computational Health Center at Helmholtz Munich today ...

Cancer cells don’t just shape shift. They state shift. That is, they can embody different cell states, or types, that possess different degrees of plasticity or hereditability. If cancer cells become ...

A small subpopulation of highly plastic cancer cells has been found to be for cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Breast cancer, particularly triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality due to its aggressive nature and limited therapeutic targets. Metabolic ...

Researchers at Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI) and the Cancer Research Institute at Kanazawa University have ...

The Wellcome Sanger Institute, Parse Biosciences, and the Computational Health Center at Helmholtz Munich today announced a collaboration to build the foundation of a single cell atlas, focused on ...
