Germ cell cancers can start in the spine, chest, and brain. What causes germ cell tumors? We do not know what causes germ cell cancers. However, some tumors start in children who do not have a normal ...

The discovery of a new type of stem cell in the brain could usher in better treatments for the deadliest brain tumor.

Germ cell brain tumors are rare brain tumors that account for 2–3% of all primary intracranial tumors. They develop in the pineal or suprasellar region of the brain. These tumors can spread to ...

For the first time, researchers have cultivated stable tumor organoids from circulating breast cancer cells, improving ...

Craniopharyngiomas are brain tumors ... of the tumor molecular characteristics. To address this gap, researchers analyzed gene expression within individual tumor cells. This study reports the ...

A clinical-stage biotechnology company will advance a novel autologous chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy that targets ...

A study co-led by UCLA scientists has found targeting a protein called endocan and its related signaling pathway could be a promising new approach for treating glioblastoma, an aggressive and lethal ...

Tumor cells circulating in the blood are the 'germ cells' of breast cancer metastases. They are very rare and could not be propagated in the culture dish until now, which made research into therapy ...

Gene mutations associated with cancer can be passed on through the germ line (i.e., inherited from one's parents), or they can be acquired through somatic mutations. It takes time for a cell to ...

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, ...
