Cancer doesn't grow in a vacuum - each tumor grows in a particular microenvironment within the body and spreads through a tangled web of vasculature and nerves. Scientists have come to understand that ...

Surprising results show that ‘sensory’ nerves, which carry information to the brain, have a direct role in helping tumours to metastasize. Further research is needed to confirm that the results hold ...
