Cross-species research shows that RNA splicing patterns, not just gene activity, track maximum lifespan in mammals, revealing ...

Cell and gene therapies are moving towards correcting root causes of diseases. Let's take a look at future cell and gene therapy trends.

A gene called KLF5 may be a key force behind the spread of pancreatic cancer—but not in the way scientists expected. Rather than mutating DNA, it rewires how genes are turned on and off, helping ...

A growing body of evidence suggests that a single gene, APOE, may play a far more dominant role in Alzheimer’s disease than ...

Why are some people unable to hear from birth, even though their inner ear appears intact? One possible cause lies in the ...

Gene drives—a genetic engineering approach that quickly spreads specific genetic changes throughout a population, whether to ...

A newly identified gene mutation may help explain why schizophrenia patients struggle to update their understanding of ...

UF scientist develops safer gene therapy restoring vision in children with rare inherited eye diseases; pivotal trials begin ...

Current gene therapies to treat sickle cell disease are complex, time-consuming, and are sometimes linked to serious side effects like infertility or blood cancer. To address these challenges, Johns ...

For the millions of people who carry the gene APOE4, the strongest known genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, their ...

Understanding how genes are switched on and off in specific cell types remains one of biology's central challenges. While AI ...
