TUM scientists discover molecular mechanism responsible for liver metastases at early stage
Pancreatic cancer is an exceptionally aggressive type of cancer. Frequently, metastases already start to grow in other organs, particularly often in the liver, before the original tumor was even detected. Scientists from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have now discovered a molecular mechanism, which is responsible for the prominent susceptibility of the liver to metastases at such an early stage. Professor Achim Krüger and his colleagues have found a molecular mechanism which makes the liver susceptible to metastases of pancreatic cancer at a very early point.

Programmable T cells chase down cancer, deliver drugs directly to tumors
UC San Francisco scientists have engineered human immune cells that can precisely locate diseased cells anywhere in the body and execute a wide range of customizable responses, including the delivery of drugs or other therapeutic payloads directly to tumors or other unhealthy tissues. In experiments with mice, these immune cells, called synNotch T cells, efficiently homed in on tumors and released a specialized antibody therapy, eradicating the cancer without attacking normal cells. As reported in the Sept. 29, 2016, online edition of Cell, in addition to delivering therapeutic agents, synNotch cells can be programmed to kill cancer cells in a variety of other ways. But synNotch cells can also

Researchers reveal how ultrasmall nanoparticles can kill cancer cells
Nanoparticles known as Cornell dots, or C dots, have shown great promise as a therapeutic tool in the detection and treatment of cancer. Now, the ultrasmall particles - developed more than a dozen years ago by Ulrich Wiesner, the Spencer T. Olin Professor of Engineering at Cornell University - have shown they can do something even better: kill cancer cells without attaching a cytotoxic drug. The study was led by Michelle Bradbury, director of intraoperative imaging at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and associate professor of radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, and Michael Overholtzer, cell biologist at MSKCC, in collaboration with Wiesner. Their work details how C dots, administered

Tumor Paint lights the way for surgeons during brain surgery
In December of last year, Laura Coffman began to notice that something wasn't quite right with her 2-year-old son, Hunter. He was leaning to one side and seemed to lose his balance easily. When he became lethargic and started vomiting a few days later on Dec. 28, she knew it was time to see the pediatrician. After all standard tests came back normal, they were sent to Seattle Children's for further testing and to find an answer. Unfortunately, it was far worse than anything Coffman could have imagined. "What I thought was probably just Hunter being a wobbly toddler with a virus turned out to be a brain tumor," said Coffman. "I will never forget that day. It was the most traumatic six hours of

Tech is Essential in the Fight to Cure Cancer
When Bonnie J. Addario was suddenly diagnosed with stage 3B lung cancer, her world was rocked. And when the doctors at a prestigious academic hospital told her that there was no hope for her case, she refused to settle. Bonnie sought second opinions until one oncologist proposed a treatment therapy... and it worked. She beat cancer and has since dedicated her life to helping others fight the same battle. Eleven years later, Bonnie, along with her husband Tony, run two not-for-profit foundations purposed to raise funds and research for personalized cures for cancer as well as provide support and advocacy for all cancer patients. Don't Guess. Test. In recent years, there's been a shift in the way
