Cancer is cells that have become dissociated from their common purpose among a diversity of cells. Cancer cells don't attack the body: they don't know about the body, they have forgotten about the body. #cancer

What #NIH #Layoffs Mean for #Cancer Patients
In the rush of headlines about budgets and restructuring, it’s easy to miss what’s really at stake. But working in cancer innovation and advocacy: when we delay #science, we delay survival. When we dismantle #research infrastructure, people #die waiting. Thousands at #NIH and #HHS were laid off. These were the people running #clinicaltrials, developing new treatment strategies, and pushing promising therapies toward approval.

"As the ability to treat initial, or primary, tumors has improved, people survive early rounds with cancer only to come back years or decades later when the #cancer has somehow resettled in a new tissue, such as brain, lung or bone. This is metastatic cancer, and it’s the big killer."

Amber Dance, Knowable Magazine & Smithsonian Magazine smithsonianmag.com/science-nat

A person’s lifestyle as well as their environment can influence their metabolism and microbiome. That, in turn, can be a factor in the success or failure of cancer to metastasize. But the relationships are complex: Things that seem good for metabolism on the surface—such as antioxidants—aren’t always things that directly counter cancer spread. Adapted from A. Vandekeere et al. / AR Cancer Biology 2024 / Knowable Magazine, via Smithsonian Magazine
