Stage 1 lung carcinoid tumors are confined to the lung and have not spread to lymph nodes or distant organs. Tumors at this stage are typically small and localized, which often allows for curative ...

New NE-AFM method measures nuclear stiffness in living cells. It shows cancer nuclei change softness with chromatin and environment, aiding diagnosis and treatment. By employing a technique called ...

Lung cancer varies widely from patient to patient, and that diversity makes it hard to find effective treatments. Researchers ...

Tracking how cancer cells develop in real time How these differences in the genome and in epigenetic control arise in cells, and how they are passed on to their daughter and granddaughter cells, has ...
