Although DNA is tightly packed and protected within the cell nucleus, it is constantly threatened by damage from normal ...

If severe DNA damage is not repaired, the consequences for the health of cells and tissues are dramatic. A study led by ...

New research from the Kind Group at the Hubrecht Institute sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human ...

A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...

DNA is often described as the instruction manual for building the fundamental components of life. Proteins are helpers that aid DNA in carrying out essential processes such as replication, repair, and ...

In a quiet lab at Utrecht University, researchers have built a tool that lets you watch one of life’s most serious crises unfold in real time. Inside every cell, DNA breaks, repairs, and sometimes ...

Overcoming tumor resistance to chemotherapy drugs has long been a challenge for oncology clinicians and researchers. Now, a new study suggests that blocking a key protein, p300, may force damaged ...

DNA can be damaged by normal cellular processes as well as external factors such as UV radiation and chemicals. Such damage can lead to breaks in the DNA strand. If DNA damage is not properly repaired ...

Cellular findings show Telomir-Zn modulates intracellular metal balance linked to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction ...

If severe DNA damage is not repaired, the consequences for the health of cells and tissues are dramatic. A study led by ...
