Maintaining normal vitamin D levels may benefit patients receiving anti-cancer immunotherapy

New research indicates that for patients with advanced skin cancer, it may be important to maintain normal vitamin D levels when receiving immunotherapy medications called immune checkpoint inhibitors.

New computational method identifies routes of cellular differentiation in acute myeloid leukemia

Researchers have developed a new method to distinguish between cancerous and healthy stem cells and progenitor cells from samples of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a disease driven by malignant blood stem cells that have historically been difficult to identify.

Repair crews may move in to help fix the oxidative damage in protein factories

In a discovery fundamental to the inner workings of cells, scientists have discovered that if oxidative stress damages protein factories called ribosomes, repair crews may move in to help fix the damage so work can quickly resume.

Mitophagy helps blood cancer cells to evade the killing effects of BH3 mimetic drug

Despite the promise of new medications that promote cancer cell death in people with acute myeloid leukemia, leukemic cells often adopt features that let them evade the drugs' effects within a year.

Novel cell signaling pathway could be targeted against aggressive pancreatic cancers

Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center identified a novel cell signaling pathway that potentially could be targeted in therapy for patients with aggressive pancreatic cancers.

Exposure to 4 or more CT scans before adulthood doubles the risk for cancers

For children under age 18 years, a single computed tomography (CT) scan is not associated with an increased risk of brain tumors, leukemia or lymphoma, but exposure to 4 or more scans before adulthood more than doubles the risk, according to new research https://www.cmaj.ca/lookup/doi/10.1503/cmaj.221303 in CMAJ.
