New research reveals that triggering a cell’s DNA damage response could be a promising avenue for developing novel treatments against several rare but devastating viruses for which no antiviral ...
DNA can sustain serious injuries called double strand breaks, in which both strands of the helix snap. These breaks are among ...
Researchers identified a new, sticky form of mitochondrial DNA damage that builds up at dramatically higher levels than in ...
When cell division (mitosis) takes too long, it can be a sign that something is wrong with the cells, for example, DNA damage ...
A noninvasive blood test to detect genetic material shed by tumors may help clinicians identify adverse events related to ...
Inside every human cell, tiny mitochondria quietly convert nutrients into usable energy, keeping organs running and immune defenses primed. Now researchers have identified a previously unknown form of ...
The composition and sequence of 3 billion bases of DNA serve as a major determinant of our individual physiology. Unfortunately, our DNA is constantly being challenged by agents that arise from either ...
Results from a VHIO-led study show that MYC targeting by Omomyc induces tumor DNA damage in patient-derived preclinical ...
After a finite number of divisions, cells simply give up. As each round of replication trims their telomeres—the protective ...
