In the study, published in Clinical and Translational Medicine, the researchers first showed that targeting the key autophagy regulating gene ATG7 significantly reduced the ability of breast ...
Here’s how it works. Scientists have discovered a gene variant that could make some parents more likely to have girls than boys. In the new study, researchers analyzed the genomes of around ...

It is this carefully controlled pattern of what is called "gene expression" that makes a liver cell different from a muscle cell, and a healthy cell different from a cancer cell. But how can ...
Studies of two different mouse strains deficient in the autophagy-related gene product Atg16L1 now show ... other autophagy-deficient cells, such as Atg7-deficient macrophages.
Current scientific techniques are not yet safe or effective enough to be used to create gene-edited babies, an international committee says. The technology could one day prevent parents from ...
Oct. 28, 2024 — Using state-of-the-art technology, researchers have identified several specific steps needed for CRISPR to become active and perform its gene editing function. These preclinical ...
And, despite the pandemic, 2020 was a landmark year for the 24-year-old, from County Durham, who became the first person in the UK to receive a revolutionary new gene therapy on the NHS.
After that, the next step in CRISPR gene editing is usually to alter that piece of DNA. However, CRISPR has also been adapted to do other things too, such as turning genes on or off without ...
Gene therapy and gene editing are on the cutting edge of modern biotechnology. Gene therapies are used to correct genetic abnormalities by introducing genetic material at a cellular level and can ...
