When a cell divides, it performs a feat of microscopic choreography—duplicating its DNA and depositing it into two new cells. The spindle is the machinery behind that process: It latches onto ...

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive and hardest forms of breast cancer to treat, but a new study led by Weill Cornell Medicine suggests a surprising way to stop it from ...

Left: Normal cell division with the chromosomes (blue) lined up and ready to be pulled into two separate daughter cells by the two centrosomes (green). Right: In faulty cell division, too many ...

A hidden clue may explain why some mutated cells become cancerous and others don’t: how fast they divide. A new study from researchers at Sinai Health in Toronto reveals that the total time it takes ...

The first study on deuterium-depleted water (DDW) concluded that a higher D/H ratio inside cells can trigger cell division.

Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new tool to predict how cancer cells evolve. By focusing on chromosome ...

For years, scientists have viewed cancer as a localized glitch in which cells refuse to stop dividing. Scientists have long ...

The ability of mutations to cause cancer depends on how fast they force cells to divide, Sinai Health researchers have found. The study, led by Dr. Rod Bremner, a Senior Investigator at the ...

Wistar scientists have combined a promising cancer therapy with a molecule that targets tumors to treat cancer more ...

Cancer Overview: Cancer is a serious disease where the body's cells start growing abnormally and can spread to other parts of ...
