By Tarun Sai Lomte Scientists reveal how evolution within our own tissues can drive disease, protect cells, and uncover hidden therapeutic targets for future precision medicine. Somatic genomics ...

Polyploid crops often display enhanced vigor, larger organs, and unique reproductive behaviors, making polyploidization a powerful breeding tool. A recent study identified how a single gene, ClOSD1, ...

Many tumors express meiotic genes that could potentially drive somatic chromosome instability. While germline cohesin subunits SMC1B, STAG3, and REC8 are widely expressed in many cancers, messenger ...

Somatic mutations in HLA genes were detected in the tumor data of five patients, and somatic HLA gene loss of heterozygosity was identified in the tumor data of five patients. Complete or partial ...

Researchers from the University of Arizona have unveiled that coordinated Y chromosome loss in both cancer cells and immune cells may explain the worse prognosis in people with this alteration. The ...

Cancer begins when mutations in specific genes override the body’s built-in controls on cell division, allowing rogue cells ...
