Of course, different genetic systems react differently to such events. Finally, still other sources of mutations are the many different types of transposable elements, which are small entities of ...

Tumors contain thousands of genetic changes, but only a few are actually cancer-causing. A quicker way to identify these driver mutations could lead to more targeted cancer treatments. Scientists can ...

Signs of Type 5 diabetes can vary depending on the subtype but usually include: Mild to moderate elevated blood glucose ...

A Series in The Lancet Neurology provides state-of-the-art reviews covering clinical and scientific evidence on the four most common genetic subtypes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), caused by ...

A recent study has revealed that a single genetic change in a strain of the highly pathogenic H5 influenza virus could ...

A change from the normal order of bases leads to different types of gene mutation eg CGA / ACC / CGA. These mutations may change the activity of a protein if they occur within a gene. This might ...

Among the forms of monogenic macular degeneration, the most common is Stargardt disease. This disease is caused by mutations in the ATP-binding cassette transporter alpha 4 subunit (ABCA4) gene, ...

GENOMIC analysis of 11,555 congenital heart disease (CHD) probands identified 60 dominant genes contributing to 10.1% of ...

Using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from nearly 500,000 UK Biobank participants, researchers identified a strong link ...

The researchers examined data between 2018 and 2022. Blood sample tests revealed that 104 patients (14%) had KRAS ctDNA mutation. These patients were more likely to develop advanced, spreading ...
