Researchers found that many of the chemicals used to flavor e-cigarettes increased the production of free radicals, while a few actually lowered it

If tumor cells could be accurately counted, they could provide an additional way to track treatment or screen for the disease

These findings represent a groundbreaking use of big data to uncover the environmental factors that are behind diseases and inform strategies for prevention

This new understanding may help to increase the effectiveness of immune-based therapies against cancer

Research provides a better understanding of how cancer spreads and may create new opportunities for cancer drug development.

Small study offers proof of concept and support for wider research

HPVs are responsible for the majority of cervical cancer and a substantial portion of head and neck and anal cancers, but therapy available to date is surgery and non-specific chemotherapy

Understanding the mechanisms that turn sets of genes on or off is a fundamental quest in biology, and one that has clinical importance in diseases like cancer, where gene control goes awry
