Cancer tumors “hijack” the genetic program utilized by developing nerves. That is shown in a study by researchers at Umeå University, Sweden. In the long run, the outcomes may open up latest ways of treating cancer by limiting the tumour’s interaction with the nerves. We’re still only early within the research, but this opens up […]

B cells or B lymphocytes are a crucial a part of the body’s immune system. When healthy B cells are infected with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), they undergo growth transformation, a process that immortalizes B cells, resulting in their uncontrolled proliferation. The induction of immortalized B cells is step one in the event of posttransplant […]
