Study results indicate that mutation strength may shape both tumor–immune system interactions and immunotherapy response.

When the TREX1 gene is functioning normally, it produces a protein that helps maintain DNA in cells throughout the body. Mutations in the TREX1 gene are known to cause a rare and serious disease ...

A study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene mutation behaves differently from other variants.

In mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an aggressive form of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, TP53 mutations are known to affect patients’ prognosis—but questions remain. What does the heterogeneity of TP53 ...

Scientists have created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene influence tumour growth.

Patients with CaV2.1 channelopathies face severe and often debilitating symptoms, such as seizures, migraines, tremors, and ...

Scientists discovered that the first 100 base pairs of human genes are unusually prone to mutations, especially during the earliest stages of embryonic development. These mosaic mutations often go ...

LONDON, Oct 23 (Reuters) - Scientists have uncovered a second gene mutation that determines which patients will respond to the bowel cancer drugs Erbitux and Vectibix, opening the way to still more ...
