While it is widely known that cigarettes can lead to lung cancer development, other factors may pose similar hazards with even more resonance. One of them is...
By targeting the machines that control the quality of DNA, we generated a high number of “warning lights” that make cancer detectable by the immune system.
There is a microscopic society living within us. Many of them reside in our gut. In some colon cancers, toxin-producing bacteria invade the mucus and form a...
We previously demonstrated that commonly used food additives can modify the community of micro-organisms that live in our intestine, and by doing so, boost the...
Cancer cells are able to spread from the primary tumor to distant sites, in a process referred to as metastasis. Recent discoveries highlight the role of white...
In contrast to our knowledge about the relationship between smoking and cancer, the public’s understanding of the link between alcohol and cancer is poor. We...
One of the most iconic images in biology is the 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human cell. It is central to the paradigm of inheritance. Our recent findings...
In this study, we demonstrated that the immune response in cancer patients could sometimes inhibit, but other times enhance tumor cells' growth.
Tumor infiltration of a certain immune cell, a CD8 T-cell, is known to predict patient outcomes in many cancers, and we found that this same parameter predicts...
Cancer tissues are often thought to be sterile entities in the human body, exempt from the influence of our microbial cohabitants. To test this theory, we...
Our diet strongly impacts our health. It is becoming increasingly clear that our diet is also linked to cancer risk, and thus perhaps may be a useful tool for...
