Rapid advances in sequencing technologies have transformed our ability to diagnose human genetic disorders, yet many patients still lack a molecular ...

Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in ...

This is a summary of: Liu. H. et al. Viral RNA blocks circularization to evade host codon usage control. Nature https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-09809-y (2025).

Researchers found that sunburn disables a natural skin defense, allowing inflammation to trigger dangerous changes in cells. Understanding this process could help stop skin cancer before it starts.

A father’s plastic exposure could significantly induce metabolic disorders like diabetes in offspring. Limiting the plastic ...

It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

A newly identified class of RNA molecules has been discovered in bacteria living inside the human body. These circular ...

Researchers uncover a cunning new trick by which breast cancer cells evade immune attack. While the cGAS-STING pathway normally detects cytosolic DNA and activates anti-tumor immunity via ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called “junk DNA” contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to Alzheimer’s disease. By experimentally testing nearly 1,000 DNA switches in human ...

Let’s talk about Katalin Karikó. You’ve probably never heard of her, but there’s a fair chance that you or someone you love ...

Explore how aggressive breast cancer evades immune defences and discover potential treatment strategies with our latest ...
