Our circadian clocks play a crucial role in our health and well-being, keeping our 24-hour biological cycles in sync with ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

For decades, biologists have known that the instructions for life are written in DNA, yet the vast majority of those letters seemed to sit in the dark, doing little that was obvious. Now a new ...

Chronic alcohol consumption profoundly alters gene expression in key brain regions involved in reward, impulse control, and decision-making, according to a study led by researchers at the Institute ...

The first study on deuterium-depleted water (DDW) concluded that a higher D/H ratio inside cells can trigger cell division. This was supported by lab experiments showing that lowering deuterium levels ...

Antiphospholipid syndrome, also known as APS, is an autoimmune disease that sits at the intersection of inflammation and blood clotting. Antiphospholipid syndrome is best known for increasing the risk ...

Deep-learning model decodes the regulatory effects of DNA changes ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

A research team has developed the "SUPER (Synthetic Upcycling Platform for Engineering Regulators)" platform, which ...

New research shows chronic alcohol use rewires gene activity in human brain regions that control reward and decision-making, ...
