A newly identified and rare genetic variant slows the growth of mutated blood stem cells and reduces the risk of leukemia.

Genetic mutations aren't always a bad thing. A groundbreaking new study suggests that mutations on a single gene may actually be beneficial when it comes to Alzheimer’s disease. For the study, Dr.

The study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — ...

Researchers identified a rare genetic variant that weakens MSI2 activity in blood stem cells, slowing clonal hematopoiesis ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

IDH-mutant glioma, caused by abnormalities in a specific gene (IDH), is the most common malignant brain tumor among young ...

Researchers working on an incurable blood cancer can now use a new lab model that could make testing potential new treatments and diagnostics easier and quicker, new research has found. Working with ...

Gastric cancer cells can activate KRAS-driven signals, enabling autonomous tumor growth by producing their own WNT proteins. New research reveals how gastric cancer cells exploit WNT signaling for ...

Research reveals that grey hairs are a small example of a cell choosing to bow out rather than risk turning malignant ...

Genetic mutations aren't always a bad thing. A groundbreaking new study suggests that mutations on a single gene may actually be beneficial when it comes to Alzheimer’s disease. For the study, Dr.

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 ...
