Chemotherapy drugs can kill cancer cells by halting DNA replication, but a glucose-depleted environment can help cancer cells ...

The findings also revealed that DNA can be repaired by cooperation between repair proteins. These proteins organize themselves into "hubs," where multiple damaged DNA regions come together. These ...

Medically reviewed by Aviv Joshua, MS Increasing your protein intake can support and improve your health in many ways, from ...

Seafood is also the main dietary source of omega-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

Dynamic, reversible modifications of DNA and RNA regulate how genes are expressed and transcribed, which can influence ...

If DNA damage is not properly repaired, mutations can occur, which may result in diseases like cancer. Cells use repair systems to fix this damage, with specialized proteins locating and binding ...

Cancer researchers at the University of Chicago and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) have discovered that mutations in certain genes can lead to the accumulation of DNA errors, ...

University of Chicago scientists have expanded our understanding of snoRNAs, discovering their extensive influence on ...

Researchers recently developed a new approach for identifying new cellular RNA targets of snoRNAs. They uncovered thousands of previously unknown targets for snoRNAs in human cells and mouse brain ...

Laboratory experiments with cancer cells reveal two ways in which tumors evade drugs designed to starve and kill them, a new ...
