Health is determined by the roles that genes and 3D genome folds play.

Published Date: 31 Jan 2024

Our genetic makeup determines whether we remain healthy or get very sick. Additionally, since the 3D genome organization controls which genes are turned on and off, the folding of our genome has a big impact on this.

In a major step forward for cancer care, researchers at ChristianaCare's Gene Editing Institute have shown that disabling the NRF2 gene with CRISPR technology can reverse chemotherapy resistance in lung cancer. The approach ...

Fertility treatments linked to higher mutations than natural conception in mice

Mice pups conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF) in the lab have slightly increased rates of DNA errors, or mutations, compared to pups conceived naturally, a new study on artificial reproductive technologies suggests.

A time-sensitive genetic switch for sex-specific features of developing neurons

Researchers have identified that the precisely timed transcription of two genes named grim and reaper is responsible for the targeted death of neurons within the developing nervous system of female flies. This group of neurons ...
