Giant-nucleus cells form the foundation of early-stage cancer

Iron is an essential micronutrient, but excess iron can damage cells and increase cancer risk. While many cells die from iron-induced oxidative stress, a subset survives and may become cancerous.

Chronic interferon exposure drives immunosuppression in tumors

Cancer biology and, in turn, cancer treatment have come a long way in the last few decades. Most people recognize this progress in breakthroughs like immunotherapy-a treatment strategy first deployed in 2011 that leverages the body's own immune cells to fight cancer and revolutionized the treatment landscape.

New AI model decodes chemical signals guiding embryonic cell development

As an embryo develops from a small cluster of stem cells, those once "blank slate" cells begin to take on more specialized roles like brain, liver, or muscle cells, and organize themselves into three-dimensional structures such as tissues and organs.

Elusive stem cells offer clues to treat lumbar spinal stenosis

Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Hospital for Special Surgery have discovered the stem cells—unspecialized cells that can develop into specific cell types—that give rise to the body's tendons and ligaments, the tissues connecting muscles and bones.
