A new study by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has identified genetic factors that determine whether prostate cancers are susceptible to a type of cell death known as ...
An international research team has uncovered a mechanism that protects nerve cells from a form of premature cell death known as ferroptosis. Headed by Prof. Marcus Conrad, PhD, director of the ...
Cancer cells that rely on vitamin B2 metabolism gain a built-in defense against ferroptosis, an iron-driven form of cell ...
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Elucidating the molecular programs that enable tumor cells to evade regulated cell death and anti-tumor immune responses is ...
A study found that spop mutations increase prostate cancer sensitivity to ferroptosis, while chd1 deletions reduce vulnerability. Statins restored sensitivity in preclinical models, suggesting ...
Exactly 200 years after the discovery of the trace element selenium, researchers have shown for the first time why this chemical element is indispensable for mammalian life. As integral part of the ...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is notoriously difficult to treat because it is quite aggressive and the tumors do not express the three major surface hormone receptors that can be targeted with ...
Researchers at Helmholtz Munich, the Technical University of Munich and the LMU University Hospital Munich uncovered a mechanism that protects nerve cells from premature cell death, known as ...
