An in vivo base editing approach targeting the PRNP gene led to a 52% increase in the lifespan of mouse models inoculated with the most common sporadic and genetic types of human pathogenic prion ...

The underlying cause of SMA is deletions or mutations in the SMN gene. It is classified into five variants based on age and clinical manifestations of the patient. In this report, we present the case ...

Otherwise, it's the same Nuna Rava seat parents (including more than 300 Nordstrom reviewers) rave about. First, its adjustable design suits kids from 5 pounds to 65 pounds, so you don't need to ...

Some genes are beneficial and enhance longevity. For example, the gene that helps a person metabolize cholesterol would reduce a person's risk of heart disease. Some gene mutations are inherited.

Aortic pathology is the leading cause of death in patients with Marfan syndrome. The fibrillin-1 gene (FBN1) is a major gene involved in the pathogenesis of MFS. It has been shown that the aortic ...

Each gene tells a cell to make a specific molecule, but this isn't performed by the DNA itself. Instead, the information is relayed to cellular machinery by a molecule called messenger RNA.

Gene regulation refers to the mechanisms that act to induce or repress the expression of a gene. These include structural and chemical changes to the genetic material, binding of proteins to ...

New work by Columbia researchers has turned a textbook principle of genetics on its head and revealed why some people who carry disease-causing genes experience no symptoms. Every biology student ...

Otherwise, it's the same Nuna Rava seat parents (including more than 300 Nordstrom reviewers) rave about. First, its adjustable design suits kids from 5 pounds to 65 pounds, so you don't need to buy a ...
