A groundbreaking study suggests that if we could eliminate aging mechanisms, humans could potentially live between 146 to 194 years. Researchers spotlight somatic mutations as key contributors to ...
Inheriting a mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 puts you at higher risk of breast, prostate, ovarian and pancreatic cancer. Genetic testing and screening can be life-saving.
Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...

New research from UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center has uncovered an evolutionary change that may explain why certain immune cells in humans are less effective at fighting solid tumors compared to ...
Researchers at UC San Diego have found that several of the most dangerous zoonotic viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, Ebola, and mpox, jumped from animals to humans without first evolving special genetic ...
From the time we are conceived and through old age, genetic mutations accumulate in all our tissues, eluding the body’s typically efficient DNA repair machinery and potentially affecting our health ...
A UBC study finds mutations from Canada’s first human H5N1 case weakened the virus’s grip on human cells, but scientists urge ...
An international team of scientists has identified several genetic mutations that, should they arise, could potentially allow the avian influenza strain H7N9 to spread between humans. The findings are ...
