More than 30 types of muscular dystrophy have been identified. They all cause problems with movement due to muscle protein defects caused by genetic mutations. Muscular dystrophy is a group of ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have identified genetic changes in blood stem cells from frequent blood donors that support the production of new, non-cancerous cells. Understanding the ...

In Brazil, the early detection of genetic alterations in lung cancer through liquid biopsies could be a valuable tool for ...

When people donate blood, stem cells in the bone marrow make new blood cells to replace what was lost. This stress can drive the selection of certain clones—groups of blood cells with a slightly ...
