flag Researchers find tumor stiffness promotes cancer growth, suggesting new treatment targets.

flag Researchers at Texas A&M University found that stiffening of tumor tissue promotes cancer cell growth by affecting the nucleus. flag In a stiff environment, the nuclear lamina becomes unwrinkled, allowing YAP protein to enter the nucleus and increase cell proliferation. flag This discovery suggests new cancer treatments could target tumor stiffness, focusing on proteins like lamin A/C.
