Researchers created a new kind of cancer drug that can grab a mutant protein while also carrying a second hit against the ...

A review article led by researchers from the B·ARGO group at the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) and from the ...

Indoor tanning is associated with markedly higher mutation burdens and cancer-driving genetic changes in melanocytes taken ...

Researchers discovered that tanning beds cause widespread, mutation-laden DNA damage across almost all skin, explaining the ...

The gene p53 acts as a tumor suppressor and often is called the ‘guardian of the genome.’ This gene is central to maintaining genomic stability, which prevents mutations from accumulating and leading ...

UV (ultraviolet) radiation is the primary risk factor of skin cancer, including melanoma. And while most cases are tied to the UV exposure we get from the Sun, tanning beds pose a clear risk as well.

Scientists discovered that certain cancer cells use a low-level activation of a DNA-dismantling enzyme—normally seen in cell death—to survive treatment. Instead of dying, these “persister cells” ...

Dr. Marwan G. Fakih explains that KRAS mutations, found in 45% of patients with colorectal cancer, include the rare KRAS G12C mutation, leading to Lumakras approval. According to the National Cancer ...

Childhood cancers are often considered genetically simple, containing few mutations. However, this notion has been challenged in a new study that found an unexpectedly high number of mutations in a ...

Before Todd Leach lost his father to a rare, aggressive form of stomach cancer, his dad gave him one last gift: a genetic ...

Despite the significance of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in solid tumor treatment, identifying ICI-sensitive populations remains a challenge. Mutations in DNA damage response (DDR) pathway ...
