Researchers have created the first complete map showing how hundreds of mutations in a key cancer gene affect tumor growth.

The study, published in Genomic Psychiatry, reveals that an inherited change in the brain can completely block the function of the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1), a receptor targeted by ...

Study results indicate that mutation strength may shape both tumor–immune system interactions and immunotherapy response.

A newly discovered genetic mutation unique to humans may help explain why we are significantly more vulnerable to cancer than our closest evolutionary relatives. Researchers at the University of ...

A research group from the National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) has found that an alteration in the POT1 gene prevents lung tissue from regenerating, which over time makes breathing difficult. A ...

When the TREX1 gene is functioning normally, it produces a protein that helps maintain DNA in cells throughout the body. Mutations in the TREX1 gene are known to cause a rare and serious disease ...
