Scientists uncover an enzyme that boosts cancer cell metabolism to fuel growth. The enzyme, GUK1, supports metabolism in cancer cells to help tumors grow.

People of South Asian descent are more likely to be affected by heart disease, but their risks often go unnoticed. Researchers are looking to genetics to learn more and prevent early deaths.

Lung cancer is a particularly challenging form of cancer. It often strikes unexpectedly and aggressively with little warning, and it can shapeshift in unpredictable ways to evade treatment.

Lung cancer claims thousands of lives annually Learn the risks warning signs and steps you can take to protect yourself and your loved ones.

A wildlife conservation group in Poland was conducting research on beavers when they spotted two rare black wolves on video footage captured in a forest last year.

The unusual sighting, captured last year on a video camera set up by SAVE Wildlife Conservation Fund Poland project coordinator Joanna Toczydłowska, has prompted the organization to collect scat ...

A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing is a ...
