Gene editing has emerged as a powerful approach for targeting the genetic causes of disease, but getting the editing ...

Researchers have used modified CRISPR to silence the extra chromosome 21 in Down syndrome cells, showing promising ...

CAR T cells are patient-derived, genetically engineered immune cells. They are "living drugs" and constitute a milestone in modern medicine. Equipping T cells, a key cell type of the immune system, ...

Chicken eggs are already used to harvest helpful proteins called antibodies to protect humans from viruses such as influenza.

DNA does not float freely in the cell. Instead, it is wrapped around histone proteins to form structures called nucleosomes.

A new gene-editing technique enables the correction of multiple genetic mutations simultaneously, transforming the prospects for millions living with complex inherited diseases, such as cystic ...

A robust and quantitative map links chromatin modification and gene expression of cells during zebrafish embryogenesis.

Researchers at EPFL have created CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that selectively labels centrioles and cilia in living cells across species. The tool enables unprecedented live imaging without genetic ...

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is entering a pivotal phase. For decades, treatment has centred on dopamine replacement to manage ...
