Bowel cancer cells have the ability to regulate their growth using a genetic on-off switch to maximize their chances of survival, a phenomenon that's been observed for the first time by researchers at ...
While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...
DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.
Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...
In a step toward treating mitochondrial diseases, researchers in the Netherlands have successfully edited harmful mutations in mitochondrial DNA using a genetic tool known as a base editor. The ...
The tiny little powerhouses of our cells, the mitochondria, are unique among organelles because they carry their own tiny ...
Dr. Elizabeth R. Plimack, MD, MS, FASCO, is lead author of a paper in European Urology reporting on an analysis of specimens from the SWOG S1314 trial in localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer that ...
From the time we are conceived and through old age, genetic mutations accumulate in all our tissues, eluding the body’s typically efficient DNA repair machinery and potentially affecting our health ...
A new long-read sequencing technique has helped researchers investigate how DNA mutations arise in a variety of contexts. A collaboration of researchers led by NYU Langone Health and NYU Grossman ...
An analysis of genetic data from over 900,000 people shows that certain stretches of DNA, made up of short sequences repeated ...
