Immune-cancer analyses across mammals reveal a potential trophic level and platelet-linked tradeoff between cancer and trauma mortality
There may be fitness tradeoffs between wound healing, immune responses, and cancer development due to shared pathways, limited resources and conflicting selective pressures. The immune system is impor...

Big new comparative oncology paper! Zachary Compton and a large multi-institutional team analysed 16,049 necropsy records for 292 species spanning three clades of tetrapods to identify species with exceptionally high or low cancer prevalence. Free to read at doi.org/10.1158/2159...
