Experiments on an ultra-rare genetic mutation that causes neurodegeneration in children have helped uncover a new mechanism ...

It may have fewer than many of the other sciences, but biology does have two dozen or so “rules”—broad generalizations about ...

Mount Sinai scientists developed V2P, a powerful new AI tool that predicts how specific DNA mutations translate into disease, unlocking faster diagnoses and new targets for therapy.

The analysis revealed that about 2 per cent of sperm from men in their early 30s contained disease-causing mutations. That ...

A University of California, Riverside, study has identified the biological underpinnings of a reproductive disorder caused by the mutation of a gene. This gene mutation also causes Fragile X Syndrome, ...

An international team of researchers has discovered a new genetic mutation that leads to childhood glaucoma, and in the process, uncovered a new mechanism for causing the disease. They hope their ...

Tiffany Fransen, diagnosed with Friedreich's ataxia, faces challenges from this rare disease. The genetic disorder affects ...

The new analysis study showed the delay may stem from genetic mutations that are present when a child is born – but activate ...

A review article led by researchers from the B·ARGO group at the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) and from the ...

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of hereditary red blood cell disorders. Sickle cell anemia is a type of SCD that occurs when a person inherits genes containing an atypical form of hemoglobin.

A new study draws a line between random genetic mutations and predictable epigenetic changes used to measure biological aging. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...
