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 ...
Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 are a common cause of cancer, making the altered protein an attractive target for ...
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 ...
A whole-genome sequencing approach shows early promise over current commercial methods for identifying more patients likely ...
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 ...
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 ...
Gene-editing technologies show great promise for medical treatments and research, with the potential to cure thousands of ...
The tiny little powerhouses of our cells, the mitochondria, are unique among organelles because they carry their own tiny ...
