Treatment introduces an expansion of the scope of gene therapies that might lead to similar treatments for neurodegenerative ...

The UB team that discovered how a gene found in 75% of us protects against neurodegeneration has now found that this same gene enhances immune function as well. The new findings were published in ...

A team of researchers at Karolinska Institutet, together with colleagues from Linköping University, has uncovered the ...

During development, many crucial genes help organisms form properly. One of those genes is myogenic determination gene number 1 (MyoD), which can exert a powerful influence as a “genome organizer." It ...

Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a powerful new AI tool called Splam that can identify where splicing occurs in genes—an advance that could help scientists analyze genetic data with greater ...

Early efforts using a CD40L-targeting agent supports genetically modified pig kidney transplants in select patients.

Stanford study finds rapid brain cell evolution boosted human cognition but lowered autism gene activity, raising vulnerability.

Parkinson's disease causes both movement and cognitive deficits, and for a long time both were thought to be caused by the ...

Elderberry juice intake triggers metabolic gene expression changes, enhancing glucose control and fat oxidation in overweight adults during meal challenges.

A gene-editing tool that can turn genes on and off like a light switch has been developed. Turning a gene on means activating ...
