Clinical Breakthroughs
Jul 24, 2014

Diabetes Drug Inhibits Cancer Growth

Metformin, a drug used to lower insulin levels in diabetics, has been shown to halt tumor progression by cutting cancer cells’ energy supply.

Clinical Breakthroughs
Jul 15, 2014

Skin Gel Stops Breast Cancer Growth Without Dangerous Side Effects

A new Northwestern Medicine study found a gel form of tamoxifen applied to the breasts of women with noninvasive breast cancer has fewer side effects than the same drug taken in oral form.

Disease Discoveries
Jul 10, 2014

Study Helps Explain Chronic Inflammation in Colon Cancer

Scientists from Northwestern Medicine and the University of Chicago identified elevated levels of a regulatory protein called beta-catenin in the T-cells of patients with colon cancer.

Scientific Advances
Jun 30, 2014

Math Models Show Influence of Macromolecular Crowding

A recently published Northwestern Medicine study uses math models based on the physical interactions within cells to make predictions of how gene transcription might be effected.

Clinical Breakthroughs
Jun 25, 2014

Targeted Radiation Controls Spreading Breast Cancer

Radioembolization may offer an alternative to chemotherapy for breast cancer patients whose tumors have spread to the liver.

Scientific Advances
Jun 19, 2014

Choices in High School Elevate Lifetime Cancer Risk for LGBT Students

One of more than a dozen connected papers to be published in the American Journal of Public Health, a recent study has shown that Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transgender youths make an increased number of choices that elevate their risk of cancer.

Clinical Breakthroughs
Jun 17, 2014

Automated Reminders Increase Rate of Colon Cancer Screenings in Low-Income Communities

A Northwestern Medicine study finds more frequent testing combined with automated reminders yields dramatic improvements in colorectal cancer screening rates among low-income and minority communities.

Scientific Advances
Jun 13, 2014

Enzymes Shown to Protect Mitochondrial DNA from Stress

David Kamp, MD, completed his residency and fellowship at Northwestern, where he now studies a range of lung disorders as well as cellular apoptosis, a process of programmed cell death.

Disease Discoveries
Jun 10, 2014

Study Illustrates Racial, Ethnic Disparities in Colon Cancer Screening

A new study has found that large racial/ethnic disparities in colorectal cancer screening persist in America, including substantial differences between English-speaking and Spanish-speaking Hispanics. The research confirmed continued low screening rates among all residents of the U.S.

Disease Discoveries
Jun 6, 2014

Toxicity Finding Promotes Cautious Approach for Drug Class

Recently published research in Human Molecular Genetics shows that removing too much of the enzyme HDAC3 has a toxic effect on the nervous system. The expression of this enzyme is inhibited by drugs being studied as potential treatment options for cancer and neurodegeneration
