About 100 cells divide every second in our body. A key protein in cell division is a protein kinase termed Plk1, because it ...

The Division of Cell and Molecular Biology studies the complex interplay of genes, proteins and biological processes that drive the development and growth of cancers. Understanding the many different ...

The unexpected discovery may provide scientists with new insights into how cancer develops — and how to combat it.

The Division of Cancer Biology is focused on understanding the molecular alterations important in the development and progression of cancer, and in determining how the disease responds to treatment.

Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

Scientists found that dormant viral genes can be reactivated in kidney cancer, prompting an immune response, offering new potential for immunotherapy. Dana-Farber researchers have discovered that in ...

About 100 cells divide every second in our body. A key protein in cell division is a protein kinase termed Plk1, because it activates other proteins involved in this process. Plk1 is also ...
