What if a cup of coffee could help treat cancer? Researchers at the Texas A&M Health Institute of Biosciences and Technology ...

Understanding the genetic mechanisms linking genome variations, such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), to phenotypes is challenging. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) are genomic loci that ...

Why do some tumors spread while others remain localized? The mechanisms governing the metastatic potential of tumor cells ...

A gene based model using nasopharyngeal carcinoma biomarkers AURKA and BUB1 accurately predicts survival and demonstrates strong clinical utility in patient risk assessment.

Alzheimer’s may be driven far more by genetics than previously thought, with one gene playing an outsized role. Researchers ...

UCSF researchers identified 30 transcription factors that reverse age-related gene expression in fibroblasts. Using CRISPR to ...

We know the genes, but not their functions—to resolve this long-standing bottleneck in microbial research, a joint research team has proposed a cutting-edge research strategy that leverages artificial ...

DNA can also be demethylated, either through passive or active processes. Passive DNA demethylation occurs when the methylation pattern is not replenished during DNA replication and gradually ...

Much of pancreatic cancer’s evasive and deadly nature may come down to low levels of one gene. In A Nutshell Early detection, ...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common type of pancreatic cancer and begins in the cells lining the ...
