A newly identified cellular system monitors subtle variations in genetic coding, hinting at a hidden level of control over ...

Researchers have identified a distinct and reproducible gene expression program associated with neurotransmission in the ...

Living cells are fundamentally nonequilibrium systems, meaning they constantly spend energy through seemingly one-way, ...

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 ...

A new drug, FLAV-27, targets epigenetic changes in Alzheimer’s. In preclinical studies, the drug reduced levels of ...

Inside a diseased cell, the genes are in chaos. Some are receiving signals to overproduce a protein. Others are reducing ...

Researchers identify a gene expression program in the living human brain that tracks with real-time neurotransmission, ...

GLP-1s are building a reputation as "wonder drugs." First characterized for their ability to improve insulin release and treat diabetes, the drugs were later found to promote weight loss and improve ...

What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...

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 ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing of endometrial samples across the menstrual cycle identified key cell types and gene signatures ...
