Cancer Epigenetics

Today, there is growing evidence that in various diseases, including different types of cancer, there are underlying epigenetic mechanisms at play. Download this infographic to explore various epigenetic mechanisms in cancer.

Tumor Heterogeneity

Download this infographic to learn more about the types of tumor heterogeneity, why heterogeneity can affect cancer treatment and how heterogeneity is linked to treatment resistance.

Cancer Genomics: Transforming Diagnosis and Treatment

Download this listicle to learn more about cancer genomics, targeted therapies and advanced diagnostics.

The Genetics of Cancer

Cancer is the term used to describe an incredibly complex group of diseases, caused by changes to the genes in one cell or a group of cells. In this infographic, we explore the genetics of cancer, the predictive and diagnostic power of genetic-based tools, and much more.

Unraveling Cancer’s Complexity

Just as every patient is individual, so is their cancer – even the cells within a specific tumor can vary considerably from one another. In this infographic, we explore cancer heterogeneity and the tumor microenvironment, discover the challenges faced when designing anticancer drugs, and uncover different therapeutic strategies for treating the disease.

Cancer Genetics – News and Features

Advances in CHO Cell Line Development for Biotherapeutics

A diverse array of biological medicines are now used to prevent and treat a wide range of illnesses. This article will discuss the development of cell lines in biopharma and will touch on key considerations, such as future manufacturability.

“DNA Loops” in Pediatric Brain Tumors Double Relapse Risk

A study of newly created databases of medulloblastoma has found that patients with tumors containing circular extrachromosomal DNA are twice as likely to relapse and three times as likely to die within five years of diagnosis.

4,749 Key Gene Clusters Influence the Progression of 32 Different Cancer Types

Researchers have released a groundbreaking study identifying 4,749 key gene clusters, termed “prognostic modules,” that significantly influence the progression of 32 different types of cancer.

187 New Genetic Variants Linked to Prostate Cancer

The largest and most diverse investigation into prostate cancer genetics yet, which included major increases in representation among men from different racial and ethnic groups, has revealed 187 new risk variants.

Vitamin B5 Levels Influence Tumor Growth in Mouse Model of Breast Cancer

New research has discovered that breast cancer cells expressing the Myc gene rely heavily on vitamin B5 to grow and survive, which could potentially be exploited as a therapeutic avenue.

Vaccinating Both Girls and Boys Against HPV Is Best To Prevent Cervical Cancer

Vaccinating both girls and boys against HPV is the best way to prevent cervical cancer, reports a new study. Gender-neutral vaccination induces herd immunity that will help to eradicate cancer-causing virus types.
