Recurrent Mutation Linked to Childhood Blindness
Researchers have identified a genetic mutation that contributes to the sight loss that occurs in children with ocular coloboma, a developmental defect that causes part of the eye to be missing at birth. The findings shed light on its causes and help explain how genes contribute to development of the eye. More...29 May 2017
Alzheimer’s Disease Progression Predicted by Gene Mutation
Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia in older adults. It is a degenerative condition, characterized by a steady loss of memory and a reduced ability to carry out daily activities. Today, an estimated five million people in the USA are living with the disease. More...25 May 2017
Gene Sequencing Reveals Mutations in Endometriosis
Endometriosis occurs when tissue lining the uterus forms and grows outside of the organ, most often into the abdomen. The disease occurs in up to 10% of women before menopause and half of those with abdominal pain and infertility problems. More...24 May 2017
Molecular Test Predicts Blood Cancer Patient Survival
Technology that can detect the length of small DNA structures in cancer cells could hold the key to predicting the outcome of patients with two different types of blood cancer. The test, used in conjunction with current methods, may help doctors make better choices about the most appropriate and effective treatment option for individual patients. More...24 May 2017
