In glioblastoma brain cancer, EGFR (HER1) genetic mutations lead to a movement of a large part of the extracellular region of the protein. This activates the intracellular area in a particular way that drives glioblastoma tumor development.
Researchers have developed a new tool for non-invasive brain imaging that can cross the blood-brain barrier and can differentiate between healthy tissue and glioblastoma brain tumors in mouse models.
Combining machine learning technology with neuroimaging data, clinicians will be better able to fully analyze a patient's glioblastoma brain tumor and predict cancer progression.
A new study reveals community gardening helps lower stress and anxiety, and reduces cancer risks. Researchers found those who gardened had elevated fiber intake and increased physical activity.
A new stem cell therapy approach eliminates established brain tumors and provides long-term immunity, training the immune system to prevent cancer from returning.
A newly designed method can record gene activity patterns and the presence of key proteins in cells across tissue samples while retaining information about the cell's precise location.
Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel), a form of CAR-T therapy appears to be safe and has encouraging signs of efficacy in treating both lymphoma of the brain and spinal cord injury.
Results of a phase three clinical trial of a novel brain cancer vaccine, DCVax-L, that uses a patient's stem cells to target cancer cells extend survival by many months to years for glioblastoma patients.
Analyzing networks within the brain can help researchers determine the risks for aphasia when deciding to operate to remove brain tumors.
A new implantable pump system safely and effectively bypasses the blood-brain barrier to deliver chemotherapy drugs to those with glioblastoma brain cancer.
Aerobic exercise reduces the risk of metastatic cancer by elevating glucose consumption.
The commercial dietary supplement nicotinamide riboside, touted to improve cardiovascular and neurological health, may actually increase the risk of developing breast cancer that metastasizes to the brain.
