Evolution is traditionally associated with a process of increasing complexity and gaining new genes. However, the explosion of the genomic era shows that gene loss and simplification is a much more ...

Greenland sharks have been identified as the longest-living vertebrates on Earth, potentially reaching ages of up to 500 years. This discovery, based on radiocarbon dating of their eye lenses ...

But Gounder had an idea: Perhaps Wolff's genes could point them in the right direction. Dr. Mrinal Gounder, a sarcoma medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) in New York ...

How is genetic information inherited? - OCR 21st Century Our genes are inherited from our parents, and the different combinations of these genes make us unique. Genetic inheritance controls the ...

Only a handful of target genes regulated by cardiac transcription factors have been identified, and how these ultimately relate to cardiac malformations is unclear. It should also be kept in mind ...

Feb. 6, 2025 — Despite new medication, cystic fibrosis often leads to permanent lung damage. Researchers have discovered that the disease causes changes in the immune system early in life ...

Here, we applied a high-throughput single-cell sequencing assay for transposase-accessible chromatin (scATAC-seq) to generate a chromatin accessibility dataset and performed an integrated multiomics ...

One of the issues when unravelling the genetic cause of a complex disease is the difficulty in uncoupling the primary and secondary defects, which may result in inadvertently focusing on a wrong ...

To understand this, some historical background is in order. “The correlation of cluster domains with unique fields of regulatory gene expression at early stages suggests a mechanistic link between the ...
