Researchers uncover key cancer-promoting gene

One of the mysteries in cancer biology is how one protein, TGF-beta, can both stop cancer from forming and encourage its aggressive growth. Now, researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center have uncovered a key gene that may explain this paradox and provide a potential target for treatment.

Researchers discover new genetic anomalies in lung cancer

By analyzing the DNA and RNA of lung cancers, researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center found that patients whose tumors contained a large number of gene fusions had worse outcomes than patients with fewer gene fusions.

Tailor-made cancer treatments? New cell culture technique paves the way

In a development that could lead to a deeper understanding of cancer and better early-stage treatment of the disease, University of Michigan researchers have devised a reliable way to grow a certain type of cancer cells from patients outside the body for study.
