A new study has shown that alcohol intake can interfere with the natural regenerative abilities of the liver. Alcohol can ...
Excessive alcohol consumption can disrupt the liver's unique regenerative abilities by trapping cells in limbo between their ...
RNA splicing involves the removal of non-coding introns and the joining of coding exons in precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) to produce mature messenger RNA (mRNA). Splicing changes can lead to diseases, ...
RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, portions of the RNA that don't code for proteins, called introns, are cut ...
Researchers in the Landau lab, led by Dr. Dan Landau, hematology and medical oncology, recently developed a new technique to investigate how mutations in RNA splicing can lead to clonal hematopoiesis ...

By stimulating macrophages—a type of white blood cell—with biological factors that mimic infection, researchers have ...
Type-II diabetes is a chronic disease caused by insulin resistance due to pancreatic β-cell dysfunction. Mutations in a single gene, HNF1A, which codes for the transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear ...
Essentially all cells in an organism's body have the same genetic blueprint, or genome, but the set of genes that are ...
A recent study published in the journal Aging sheds light on how aging interferes with the brain’s ability to produce key ...
