The immune system plays a crucial role in fighting tumors and metastases. Consequently, it is decisive to conduct cancer research in mouse models with an immune system that is as natural as possible—which is easier […]
The gut microbiome is made up of trillions of microbes that play a vital role in keeping us healthy. A disturbance in the balance of these microbes can contribute to a variety of health conditions, […]
Researchers at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) revealed important genetic components that affect bone density in children and adolescents. This information could help identify pediatric patients who may benefit from strategies to help improve their […]
A team of researchers at the Broad Institute, led by gene-editing pioneer David Liu, has developed a new genome-editing strategy that could potentially lead to a one-time treatment for multiple unrelated genetic diseases.This article was […]
A Yale research team has created a new imaging technique that reveals the hidden connections between aging, disease, and genetic activity in human cells.This article was originally published on MedicalXpress.com
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a high heritability, in which the genetic component consists of thousands of genetic variants. Most variants only slightly increase the likelihood of receiving the diagnosis. Now an international study […]
In a surprising discovery, a “sticky molecule” that occurs naturally in our blood vessels could be both a culprit behind blood clots and organ failure during COVID and long COVID and the key to new […]
University of Kentucky researchers have developed a new experimental model that could point the way toward more effective Alzheimer’s disease treatments by targeting one of the brain’s most important genes for risk and resilience.This article […]
A new discovery from the lab of YouYang Zhao, Ph.D., from Stanley Manne Children’s Research Institute at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, opens promising new directions for treatment of life-threatening lung […]
Genetic susceptibility to neurodevelopmental conditions such as schizophrenia, autism, and ADHD can be linked, in part, to distinct epigenetic signatures in newborn cord blood. An analysis of nearly 6,000 newborns published in Biological Psychiatry revealed […]
