Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Scientists have discovered that increased expression of a novel long non-coding RNA drives glioblastoma cell growth alongside ...

Cancer stem cells (CSCs), a critical subpopulation within tumors, drive cancer initiation, progression, metastasis, relapse, ...

A patient walks into a thoracic surgery consultation with a small lung tumor, stage I on every scan, and every conventional ...

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

New spatial transcriptomics approach combined with machine learning maps gene expression across whole mouse body sections, ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function. Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics—meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

A new study demonstrated that introducing neurons into Xenopus-derived biobots led to the self-organization of active neural ...

Dr Romain Joubert of AviadoBio explained how the company has used an adeno-associated virus gene replacement programme in ...

A new paper in Molecular Biology and Evolution, finds that changes in animal development induced by climate shock persist ...
