Treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) depends on knowing what goes wrong inside cells. A new study suggests that two genetic ...

Using cannabis may cause changes in the human body's epigenome, a study of over 1,000 adults suggests. The epigenome functions like a set of switches, activating or deactivating genes to change how ...

Cannabis use may leave lasting fingerprints on the human body, a study of over 1,000 adults suggests – not in our DNA code itself, but in how that code is expressed. US researchers found it may cause ...

Scientists have uncovered a gut-specific epigenetic aging mechanism that links inflammation and iron imbalance to cancer risk ...

Do epigenetic changes cause type 2 diabetes, or do the changes occur only after a person has become ill? A new study provides increased support for the idea that epigenetic changes can cause type 2 ...

New research provides a mechanistic map of how genetic mutations disrupt RNA splicing in acute myeloid leukemia.

Researchers at the University of Cologne and University Hospital Cologne have determined that the novel mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines not only induce acquired immune responses such as antibody ...

A naturally occurring dietary compound has been linked to biological signs of slower aging. Higher levels of theobromine in ...

A groundbreaking study, spanning 15,000 tissue samples across 348 mammal species, has unveiled a potential key to unlocking the mysteries of longer life. The research, delving deep into the realm of ...

A person's lifetime risk for cancer may begin before they are even born, reports a paradigm-shifting study by Van Andel Institute scientists. The findings, published in Nature Cancer, identified two ...

Do epigenetic changes cause type 2 diabetes, or do the changes occur only after a person has become ill? A new study by researchers at Lund University provides increased support for the idea that ...
