The study found that gastric cells in some individuals carried three copies of certain chromosomes, hinting toward exposure ...

Stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, is the fifth most common cancer worldwide, with nearly one million new cases in ...

Scientists have systematically analyzed somatic mutations in stomach lining tissue to unpick mutational processes, some of which can lead to cancer. The team also uncovered hints of a potential new ...

Scientists have carefully examined somatic mutations in stomach lining tissue to uncover mutational mechanisms that can lead to cancer. The scientists also discovered evidence of a possible new cause ...

It's time for researchers to reconsider the current paradigm of cancer as a genetic disease, argued Sui Huang from the ...

A vaccine's ability to generate long-lasting, high-affinity antibodies hinges on a delicate balance. Upon exposure to a vaccine or pathogen, B cells scramble to refine their defenses, rapidly mutating ...

New imaging reveals a built-in safeguard that allows B cell populations to rapidly expand in germinal centers without introducing deleterious mutations.

This important study provides solid evidence that glucosylceramide synthase (GlcT), a rate-limiting enzyme for glycosphingolipid (GSL) production, plays a role in the differentiation of intestinal ...

The earliest days after fertilization, once a sperm cell meets an egg, are shrouded in scientific mystery. The process of how a humble single cell becomes an organism fascinates scientists across ...

Huntington's disease is a rare genetic, autosomal dominant, neurodegenerative disease, caused by CAG repeat expansions in the HTT gene, that is polymorphic on the healthy allele and contains more than ...
