Breast cancer remains a significant global health concern, warranting further exploration into its genetic basis and potential therapeutic targets.

Researchers at UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, after decades of research efforts, have developed a mouse model of Kaposi sarcoma that could be key to the development of new drugs to treat the disease.

A healthy lifestyle may offset the effects of life-shortening genes by more than 60%, suggests an analysis of the findings from several large long term studies, published online in the journal BMJ Evidence Based Medicine.

As embryos, all complex organisms are partially made up of pluripotent stem cells, a term for cells that have the capacity to differentiate into any kind of cell: nerve cells, muscle cells, blood cells, skin cells, and the like.

The knowledge-driven MARRVEL AI-based model (AIM) to identify Mendelian illnesses.

Researchers have developed a robust method for identifying rare brain neurons that re-enter the cell cycle, offering insights into their role in cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's disease.

A study on the genetic link between depression and cardiovascular disease could initiate preventative strategies.

​Studies have found that people with depression run a greater risk of cardiovascular disease, with early and effective treatment of the mental illness lowering the risk of developing heart-related conditions.

Our study turns a common way of thinking about depression on its head, which may influence how people are treated.

Study investigated whether SARS-CoV-2 lingers in tissues after COVID-19 recovery and if it's linked to long COVID symptoms. They found viral RNA in various organs, and its presence correlated with long COVID symptoms.
