Colorectal cancer

High iron levels, often linked to red meat consumption, can fuel cancer growth by reactivating proteins that allow cancer cells to divide endlessly.

Researchers have discovered a molecular pathway in colorectal cancer cells that leads to uncontrolled division, creating an avenue for more targeted therapies.

Different forms of the protein HNF4ɑ can pair up to influence diverse processes ranging from development to diabetes, study shows.

A surprising finding shows that some clusters of cells commonly found in the bloodstream of colorectal cancer patients are actually non-cancerous
