  • Here, the authors find that mammals with more diverse immune genes (MHC I) face lower cancer risk, suggesting that immune surveillance could be a widespread natural defense against cancer.

  • Factors controlling cancer and neoplasia prevalence across species are unclear. Here, the authors investigate the impact of diet and plasma glucose levels across 273 vertebrate species, finding no association between glucose levels and cancer within birds, mammals, or reptiles.

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential of assisting the study and diagnosis of veterinary cancers. Here, the authors build a cancer digital pathology atlas encompassing multiple animal species and demonstrate an AI approach for comparative pathology, which yields insights about immune response and morphological similarities.

  • Based on a consensus conference of experts in the evolution and ecology of cancer, this article proposes a framework for classifying tumours that includes four evolutionary and ecological processes: neoplastic cell diversity and changes over time in that diversity, hazards to cell survival and available resources.

  • An analysis of cancer mortality data for zoo mammals highlights marked differences across mammalian orders and an influence of diet, and shows that mortality risk is largely independent of body mass and life expectancy across species.

  • Some acts of human cooperation are not easily explained by traditional models of kinship or reciprocity. Fitness interdependence may provide a unifying conceptual framework, in which cooperation arises from the mutual dependence for survival or reproduction, as occurs among mates, risk-pooling partnerships and brothers-in-arms.

  • Evolutionary life history theory posits that some organisms reproduce rapidly whereas others invest more resources in survival. This framework might help us to understand the diversity of phenotypes that are displayed by tumour cells, including stem cell-like phenotypes, and could have important clinical implications.
