How gene mutations disrupt cell growth and trigger cancer?
Cancer begins when mutations in specific genes override the body’s built-in controls on cell division, allowing rogue cells ...
A team of researchers at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center has identified a new pathway through which mutations in the tumor suppressor p53 gene—found very frequently in human tumors—hijack DNA ...

How somatic mutations shape disease and reveal new drug targets
By Tarun Sai Lomte Scientists reveal how evolution within our own tissues can drive disease, protect cells, and uncover hidden therapeutic targets for future precision medicine. Somatic genomics ...
Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Genetic mutations aren't always a bad thing. A groundbreaking new study suggests that mutations on a single gene may actually be ...
In people destined to get Alzheimer's in their mid-40s, one protein can delay the onset of the disease by about 20 years.
Approximately 40% of the East Asian population suffers from alcohol intolerance, commonly known as "Asian Flush Syndrome". This ALDH2 genetic mutation is more than just a metabolic defect; it conceals ...
A mutation in the TDP-43 protein reduces the viability of motor neurons without triggering protein clumps, researchers found.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — A hallmark of Parkinson’s disease is the buildup of Lewy bodies — misfolded clumps of the protein known as alpha-synuclein. Long before Lewy bodies form, alpha-synuclein can interfere ...
A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the first time, in a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine and the ...
Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in ...
A new study suggests a gene mutation could have a protective effect against Alzheimer's. The research looked specifically at blood stem cells, which live in the bone marrow and make different types of ...
