Progress in creating the immune system against cancer

immune system against cancer

A recent study featured in MIT Technology Review, a team of scientists at Johns Hopkins could this close to achieving a breakthrough in the treatment of cancer. The research results show that bacteria may help destroy cancer cells in patients with liver cancer, lung or pancreas.  Many doctors and researchers trying to treat cancer without [...]

New treatments for skin cancer

skin cancer

According to a BBC article; a new vaccine against skin cancer has been developed by scientists in Argentina. The results of animal tests have been positive, so the vaccine has entered phase human trials and is being applied to patients with melanoma, one of the most aggressive skin cancers. Over the next 4 years will [...]

Nanoparticles to treat cancer

Nanoparticles to treat cancer

A team of researchers from the University of Michigan has created the nanotechnology equivalent of a Trojan Horse to carry a powerful chemotherapy in tumor cells, thereby increasing the drug’s ability to kill cancer cells and reducing side effects toxic. According to a press release released yesterday by the University, previous studies in cell cultures [...]

Nanoparticles for cancer

Nanoparticles for cancer

The sooner a cancer is detected, the greater the chances of effective treatment. A team of scientists from different specialties at the University of Missouri-Colombia is investigating the application of nanoparticles to detect and treat cancer at the molecular level. Their main motivation is the early detection of all cancers and as one of the [...]

Chicken genome and new possibilities in the study of cancer

study of cancer

According to an article published today in the journal Nature, members of the Research Group in Biomedical Informatics in Barcelona have participated in a project that has managed to decipher the chicken genome, the first to sequence a bird. This is a scientific breakthrough in the study of viruses and cancer, the evolution of vertebrates [...]

Advances in research on metastasis

metasis

A study conducted by a team of scientists and published in Cell (see summary of study here) this month, relieves important information about the development of cancer. Scientists already know a lot about how they originate and develop tumors, but until now little has been known about how to achieve a cancer metastasize and invade [...]

Advances in methods to diagnose cancer

Advances in methods to diagnose cancer

According to an article published this month in MIT Technology Review, and thanks to recent advances in medical research, will soon be offering a new analysis technique allows blood to diagnose cancer in the first phase of the disease. This represents a breakthrough in cancer treatment, since in most cases the disease proves fatal in [...]

Advances in lung cancer treatment

lung cancer treatment

According to an article this week in The New York Times, for the first time in decades, doctors have made progress in treating lung cancer chemotherapy applied in sessions after surgery.  For years, doctors have found that chemotherapy is not effective against lung cancer. But recent research seems to prove the opposite, and for some [...]

Advances in cancer screening systems

cancer screening systems

According to an article on EurekAlert, a team of scientists from the University of Bristol is developing a new test to detect breast cancer in its early stages. In Europe, breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women between 35 and 55. The test uses an innovative radiation permiterá make it regularly without [...]
