The treatment of leukemia among children could be made more precise with fewer side effects with the help of more accurate methods of diagnosis. A new study led by Umeå University, Sweden, reveals ...
A study led by Dr. Jason Pitt, Principal Investigator at the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore (CSI Singapore), has identified eight new "signatures" of DNA patterns (gains and/or losses) in ...
Aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) pathogenesis. The aberrant DNA methylation patterns in NPC, particularly in its cancer stem cells (CSCs), and their underlying ...
Scientists found that some inherited traits can bypass the traditional rules of genetics, revealing a surprising new layer of ...
Big-picture patterns of DNA packaging, gene activation and mutations could hold the information needed to develop a blood-based biopsy for small cell lung cancer patients, according to new work ...
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive neuroendocrine tumor of the skin. It can be subdivided into two groups: virus-associated MCCs (VP-MCCs) in which carcinogenesis depends on the integration ...
In a recent study published in Epigenetics, researchers investigated the epigenetic rewiring of odor perception in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected cells. Study: ...
An international team of biologists, geneticists, anthropologists and biochemists has found, through genetic analysis, that the migration patterns of ancient Mexican civilizations were much more ...
Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the University of California-Davis (UC Davis) are combining in vivo experimentation with computation for highly accurate prediction ...
Somewhere between 2% and 19% of the genetic ancestry carried by present-day West African populations traces back to an ...
Biophysicists have found ways to make and manipulate capsule-like DNA structures that could be used in the development of artificial molecular systems. Such systems could function, for example, inside ...
