The discovery may explain why cutting edge CAR T-cell therapy has managed to revolutionized treatment for blood cancer but ...

Now, researchers have identified one of these mutations, named SIK3-N783Y, in a human super-sleeper. The team then studied the mutation in genetically modified mice and found that the mice carrying ...

The origins and functional effects of postzygotic mutations throughout the human life span. Science , 2023; 380 (6641) DOI: 10.1126/science.abn7113 Cite This Page : ...

Despite modern technology and industrialization, humans are still changing as a species, even today. Here are a some indications that our evolution isn’t over.

For instance, the lab previously found that humans and Neanderthals have a point mutation in another gene, called ARHGAP11B, which increases both neocortex size and brain folding when introduced into ...

In a step toward treating mitochondrial diseases, researchers in the Netherlands have successfully edited harmful mutations ...

"Similar events — mutations arising during infection that increase risk in humans — occurred with the individual who was infected with H5N1 from wild birds in Canada and have happened a number ...

The mutation seen in both viruses is believed to help H5N1 adapt to be able to bind to cell receptors found in the upper respiratory tracts of people.

Single bird flu mutation could let it latch easily to human cells, study finds. The potential mutation would allow the virus to hitch itself to a protein on the surface of our cells, ...
