A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that ...

Bowel cancer cells have the ability to regulate their growth using a genetic on-off switch to maximize their chances of survival, a phenomenon that's been observed for the first time by researchers at ...

A study explains how broken DNA during cell division can trigger chromoanasynthesis when two repair pathways combine, causing ...

Researchers at Cardiff University have uncovered how a particularly severe form of DNA damage arises—shedding new light on ...

A protein, TDP43, previously linked to dementia and ALS, has been found to control DNA repair. Researchers say abnormal ...

An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...

An analysis of pre-treatment tumor specimens from 105 patients with localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer found that the presence of a mutation in any one of three genes, all known to be involved ...

Houston Methodist scientists have uncovered an unexpected side of a protein best known for its link to brain diseases. The ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...

Dr. Elizabeth R. Plimack, MD, MS, FASCO, is lead author of a paper in European Urology reporting on an analysis of specimens from the SWOG S1314 trial in localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer that ...
