A cell copies all of its DNA, gears up to split in two, and then just… doesn’t. It sits there, swollen with a double genome, ...

Physical pressure can stop cancer cells from growing large enough to divide, revealing why squeezed tumors may stall.

Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how cells behave when division goes wrong. Sometimes a cell successfully copies its DNA but fails to split into two, leaving it with double the genetic ...

Researchers found that smaller cancer cells with doubled DNA often behaved more aggressively than larger ones.

University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have revealed how mistakes in the final step of cell division can have dire consequences for developing brain cells. The findings offer important ...

Scientists have uncovered a previously overlooked mechanism that may help melanoma cells become effectively “immortal.” Cancer cells face a major problem before they can become deadly: They have to ...

Researchers found that lowering MHC I can expose cancerous or foreign cells to CD4+ T cell attack, reshaping assumptions ...

One of the key areas of scientific study in recent times includes the use of stem cell research in space. Scientists are ...
