Somatic testing analyzes genetic material in specific cells or tissues to identify acquired mutations, revolutionizing oncology by enhancing diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment strategies. This ...
Mutations in the BRCA1 gene that are either inherited (germline) or acquired (somatic) might not be key to the initiation of prostate cancer, as previously thought, suggests the first study of its ...
Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...
A study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene ...
Two new studies from Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have investigated how mutations that occur in muscles and blood vessels over time can affect aging. The studies, which are published in Nature ...
The Urology Care Foundation and the Prostate Cancer Foundation have created a new educational guide on genetic tests to guide ...
From the time we are conceived and through old age, genetic mutations accumulate in all our tissues, eluding the body’s typically efficient DNA repair machinery and potentially affecting our health ...
VEXAS syndrome is a rare adult-onset inflammatory disease linked to bone-marrow mutations. Doctors explain why it is often ...
Scientist examining genetic testing results on a screen High-grade tumors do not directly evolve from lower-grade ones, but both likely emerge from a common, pre-malignant mutagenic field. A recent ...
