Older trees accrue more mutations than their younger ones: Study
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
Older, long-lived trees are thought to contribute more to the creation and maintenance of genetic diversity than young, short-lived trees, according to research on the relationship between the growth rate of tropical trees and the frequency of genetic mutations they accumulate.

Researchers suggest effects of genetic mutations on RNA formation
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
A Munich-based research team developed an algorithm that predicts the consequences of genetic changes on RNA production six times more accurately than earlier models. As a result, the genetic origins of uncommon hereditary disorders and cancer may now be more precisely identified.

Study predicts the effects of genetic mutations on RNA formation
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
A research team from Munich has created an algorithm that predicts the effects of genetic mutations on RNA formation six times more precisely than previous models. As a result, the genetic causes of rare hereditary diseases and cancer can now be pinpointed with greater accuracy.

Study discovers how genetic mutations contribute to adult epilepsy
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
bout 1 in 26 people have epilepsy, and the most common type, temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), is frequently ineffectively treated with anti-seizure drugs. Neurosurgery may be necessary for patients with this type of epilepsy in order to stop their seizures. Uncertainty surrounds the causes and

Study suggests how combination of drugs help to reduce lung tumors
Updated : 2 years, 12 months ago IST
Personalization of cancer treatments has long been a goal--finding the right drugs that work for a patient's specific tumour based on specific genetic and molecular patterns. Many of these targeted therapies are highly effective, but they are not available for all cancers, including NSCLCs w

Study explains why older fathers pass on more genetic mutations to their o
Updated : 2 years, 4 months ago IST
The male reproductive system serves as a hotspot for the emergence of new genes. Perhaps that explains why more new mutations are inherited from fathers than from mothers. It doesn't, however, clarify why older fathers pass on more mutations than younger ones do. The mechanisms that might un

Study reveals genetic change in esophageal mucous membrane lead to esophag
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Barrett oesophagus is a genetic mutation in the esophageal mucous membrane that can lead to esophageal cancer. If certain biomarkers, known as miDNA, which are extremely short DNA strands, are found in these tissue alterations, it could be an indication that this preliminary stage of esophag

Study finds link between genetic mutation and childhood glaucoma
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
A team of scientists has discovered a new genetic mutation that maybe a root cause of severe cases of childhood glaucoma, a devastating condition that runs in families and can rob children of their vision by 3 years of age.

Researchers reveal new genetic mutation cause of childhood glaucoma
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
Researchers have identified new genetic mutation which may be the cause of server cases in patients with childhood glaucoma, a debilitating condition that runs in families and can cause blindness in children as young as three years old.
