New Study Finds Selfish DNA (LINE-1) is Essential for Early Human Embryo Development
Recent research has shed light on how "selfish DNA," particularly LINE-1 transposons, plays a key role in early human development. Once viewed primarily as harmful, these elements have now been found to be essential for the normal formation and specialisation of cells during the embryo's early stages. Blocking their activity causes developmental di...

Key Gene Behind Breast Cancer Identified
Researchers from the University of Queensland, together with Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the US, developed a statistical approach "to reveal many previously hard-to-find genes that contribute to cancer".

What Is Autism Spectrum Disorder? Here's Everything You Should Know About It
Autism spectrum disorder is a condition which is related to brain development that impacts how a person interacts with others, perceives and socializes with others, causing problems in social interaction and communication.

Gene That Strengthens Immune System Identified
The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO)identified the gene that plays a critical role in regulating the body's immune response to infection including cancer and diabetes.

Scientists Successfully Identify Gene Responsible For Autism
This may pave the way for developing autism treatments.

Common Anti-Allergy Drugs May Treat Deadly Blood Clots
The research by the University of Birmingham in the UK could lead to new treatments that prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot that develops within a deep vein in the body, usually in the leg, and causes swelling, aching and difficulty walking.

Researchers Discover Gene Linked Age-Related Problems: Study
Several genes are associated with age-related conditions, including hearing loss, retinal degeneration and osteoarthritis, a large screening programme in the UK has identified.

How Mutant Cells Turn Into Aggressive Cancers Discovered
Scientists have discovered how a gene mutation found in several human cancers - including leukaemia, gliomas and melanoma - promotes the growth of aggressive tumours, a finding that may help develop new treatment for the deadly diseases.

5 New Genes May Lead To Customised Breast Cancer Treatment
Scientists have uncovered five new genes associated with breast cancer and 13 new mutational signatures that influence tumour development, an advance that may lead to personalised healthcare for the deadly disease. The results of the largest-ever study to sequence the whole genomes of breast cancer also show what genetic variations exist in the dis...

Gene That Triggers Sepsis Identified
Opening the door for the development of new treatment of the lethal disease sepsis, scientists have identified a gene that triggers the inflammatory condition.

Uncovered: How Cancer-Suppressing Gene Works
Opening new opportunities for scientists to find treatments for cancer, Australian researchers have uncovered the role played by a gene which suppresses the development of cancer.

Gene Mutation That Causes Autism Identified
The study opens possibilities for research into treatments of Autism Spectrum Disorder, which is characterised by reduced social skills, repetitive behaviour, behavioural disorders, a severe lack of language development and other clinical symptoms.
