Manuel Valiente, DVM, PhD - Molecular and cellular rationale underlying the heterogeneous impact of metastases on brain activity

Scientists from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the HI-STEM* Stem Cell Institute have deciphered a key mechanism that contributes to treatment failure in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The...

Androgens have distinct roles in the brain, acting as immune-based tumour suppressors through neuroinflammation and neuroendocrine mechanisms.

Both the nervous system and cancer-intrinsic neural features can govern cancer initiation, growth, progression, metastasis, and treatment resistance, …

Recent evidence from a study published in Nature by Wei et al. reveals a bidirectional tumor–brain axis in lung cancer that suppresses immune surveillance by reprogramming macrophages and disabling T cell responses. These findings highlight neuroimmune signaling as a key regulator of cancer progression and a promising therapeutic target.
