In a study published in Current Biology on August 14, Prof. Miao Wei's team at the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Prof. Zhang Jianzhi's team at the University ...

An international team of scientists has—for the first time, they suggest—systematically analyzed somatic mutations in stomach lining tissue to unpick mutational processes, some of which can lead to ...

Scientists already suspect that somatic mutations—those that accrue in cells outside the germline over a person’s lifetime, seemingly at random—play a role in neurodegenerative diseases. Now, several ...

ctDNA as a biomarker in phase II study of tepotinib in advanced solid cancers with MET exon 14 skipping mutation or amplification (KCSG AL19-17). Characterization of molecular response and progression ...

Colorectal tumors that underwent somatic next-generation sequencing (NGS) for 154-168 genes in an in-house laboratory between 2015 and 2022 were retrospectively identified. Microsatellite instability ...

Two months later, Gould began to experience a strange cascade of symptoms. His ankles swelled to the width of his calves. The right side of his face became so bloated that he could not open his eye.

A study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by scientists from Israel and Ghana shows that an evolutionarily significant mutation in the human APOL1 gene arises not ...

A pivotal study has provided unprecedented insights into the genetic architecture of sweet oranges, highlighting the critical role of somatic mutations in shaping fruit development. By constructing a ...
