Carcinoma is cancer that begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs.

Anaplastic large-cell lymphoma risk after reconstructive surgery is extremely low, study finds

The incidence of a rare cancer, anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), has surged in recent years, possibly because of the growing use of textured breast implants.

The potential of grape consumption to modulate UV-induced skin erythema

A recent Antioxidants study evaluated the effect of grape consumption on reducing UV-induced skin erythema.

Study provides novel therapeutic targets for enhancing the antitumor immunity of γδ-T cells in diabetes

A research team at LKS Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong (HKUMed) discovered that high glucose impairs the antitumor activity of immune effector γδ-T cells, which contributes to the increased cancer risk in diabetes and that metabolic reprogramming by glucose control may improve the antitumor activity of γδ-T cells.

Stem cell crosstalk with the microenvironment creates a loop of tumor-promoting factors

What drives tumor growth? Is it a few rogue cells imposing their will upon healthy tissue, or diseased tissue bringing out the worst in otherwise peaceable cells? Or is it a back-and-forth, a dialogue between the two?

Cryoablation is more effective than heat-based treatment for some small kidney cancers

For patients with early-stage renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) that measure between 3 and 4 centimeters, a procedure that destroys the cancer by freezing – called cryoablation – yields a lower-risk of cancer-related death compared to heat-based thermal ablation, reports a preliminary study in The Journal of Urology®, an Official Journal of the American Urological Association.

Microniches of intratumoral microbiota impact spatial and cellular heterogeneity in cancer

Researchers mapped spatial, cellular, and molecular interactions of host and tumor-associated bacteria within the tumor microenvironment.

MUSC researcher identifies dramatic rise in cervical cancer incidence among women in early 30s

MUSC Hollings Cancer Center researcher Ashish Deshmukh, Ph.D., identified a dramatic recent rise in cervical cancer incidence among women in their early 30s. This work was published Nov. 21 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Tumor matrix profiles determine the risk and prognosis of a common type of lung cancer

Scientists at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research have identified molecular profiles of the surrounding matrix of a common type of lung cancer that might indicate which patients are likely to develop aggressive tumors.

New method for isolating Omicron subvariant and evaluating resistance to therapeutic and vaccine-elicited antibodies

Researchers demonstrated a viral amplification procedure to isolate the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron subvariants.

The role of bacteria in cancer growth

Tumor-associated microbiota is an important component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) across 33 types of human cancer. However, little evidence is available regarding the spatial distribution and localization of these microbes in tumor cells.

Novel molecular imaging radiotracer can precisely diagnose multiple cancers

A new molecular imaging radiotracer can precisely diagnose a variety of cancers, providing a roadmap to identify patients who may benefit from targeted radionuclide therapies.

New gene classifier can predict the risk of cancer cells recurring or progressing

A team of researchers mapping a molecular atlas for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has made a major advance toward distinguishing whether the early pre-cancers in the breast will develop into invasive cancers or remain stable.

Modified CEUS criteria using perfluorobutane can help diagnose high-risk hepatocellular carcinoma

According to an accepted manuscript published in ARRS' American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), diagnostic performance of LR-5 for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis was not significantly different between modified contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) using perfluorobutane and CT/MRI LI-RADS version 2018.

New discovery reveals which patients will survive longer after receiving immunotherapy

Patients with head and neck cancer who have more genetic material on chromosome 9 in their cancer cells survive three times longer after receiving immunotherapy than those with less genetic material there, a new study finds.

Researchers develop a new method to map the spatial evolution of cancers

Researchers developed a genetic clone mapping workflow centered around base-specific in situ sequencing (BaSISS) technology to derive quantitative maps of multiple genetic clones of cancer cells.

Cell competition could be responsible for cancer relapses, study shows

A normal process called cell competition, in which healthy tissues eliminate unhealthy cells, could be responsible for cancer relapses in patients months or years after they were declared cancer-free, a new study by UT Southwestern Simmons Cancer Center researchers suggests.

Study determines the diagnostic utility of liver stiffness measurement

Even after chronic hepatitis C has been cured, portal hypertension remains the major factor driving the development of complications in advanced liver disease. In cooperation with researchers from Spain, a research team led by Georg Semmler and Mattias Mandorfer from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at MedUni Vienna's Department of Medicine III showed that the non-invasive tests explored in their earlier studies accurately estimate the probability of sequelae.

Hybrid virus particles formed from coinfections exhibit immune evasion and expanded tropism

Researchers examined virus-virus interactions using human lung cells coinfected with two co-circulating respiratory infection-causing viruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza A virus (IAV).

Study shows potential for eliminating surgery in a small subset of breast cancer patients

Researchers evaluate the efficacy of radiotherapy in patients with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer or TNBC after neoadjuvant systemic therapy.
