A research team has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation from stem ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered how molecular "traffic controllers" in cells influence aging and cellular ...

Biotin, also known as vitamin H, is a water‐soluble vitamin that occupies a central role in intermediary metabolism by functioning as an essential coenzyme for carboxylases. In recent years, research ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Our brain is arguably the organ that most distinguishes humans from other primates. Its exceptional size, complexity and capabilities far exceed those of any other species on Earth. Yet humans share ...

Origin-recognition complex, or ORC, plays an unexpectedly broad role in the regulation of human cell gene expression, according to a study in the journal Cell Reports. This is the first detailed study ...

A recent study marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells. As a proof-of-concept, the ...

A multi-omics study identifies causal genes and biological subtypes of long COVID, revealing new therapeutic targets for ...

Tesamorelin is a synthetic 44–amino acid analog of growth hormone–releasing hormone (GHRH) that has attracted attention outside the experimental domain for its potential as a research tool. This ...

This study merges causal genetics and network theory, revealing 32 genes linked to long COVID, offering insights for ...
