Ferroptosis represents a distinct form of regulated cell death, characterised by the iron-dependent peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in cellular membranes. Unlike apoptosis or necroptosis, ...

Long non-coding RNAs exist in the so-called "Wild West" (99%) of the human genome that is currently understudied. Not only does this finding have treatment implications for patients with ...

The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a key player in understanding complex diseases. Following the landmark ...

Human genes that encode proteins often contain non-coding segments known as introns. Removing introns is crucial for the proper expression of genetic information. Understanding how our cells ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...

Researchers have uncovered a previously underappreciated mechanism that helps immune cells respond rapidly to infections.

Researchers have identified RNA signatures in blood that may distinguish inflammatory breast cancer from other breast cancer ...

Breakthrough discovery of fungal long non-coding RNA attack mechanism could enable greener, broad-spectrum disease-resistant ...
