Genes inherited from the now-extinct Denisovans are actively playing a role in the immune system of some people from Oceania.

Ancient encounters between humans and the mysterious Denisovans are still shaping people today. By analyzing genomes from populations across the Pacific, researchers uncovered evidence that the ...

Scientists have reached a new milestone in decoding the human genome, unlocking complex regions once believed to be too difficult to study. Researchers used long-read sequencing to analyze the DNA of ...

Somewhere between 2% and 19% of the genetic ancestry carried by present-day West African populations traces back to an ...

Led by University of Tartu researchers, the largest and most comprehensive study to date has been completed on how genetic differences between individuals influence metabolism. Published in Nature, ...

A recently described method to predict pathogenicity of DNA variants uses a DNA language model and can be applied to both coding and non-coding variants. For coding variants the performance of this ...

It has been proposed that mitochondrial DNA variations can affect mitochondrial function, increasing the risk of drug-induced liver injury. This study aims to explore the association between ...

Comparison of multiparametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) vs. positive biopsy cores on risk of adverse pathologic outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP) in Gleason grade group (GG) 2 prostate cancer. This ...

Cancer cells excel at evading detection, but subtle chemical differences set them apart from healthy cells. Now, a team of scientists from Wageningen University & Research and Van Andel Institute has ...

Safety, Feasibility, and Merits of Longitudinal Molecular Testing of Multiple Metastatic Sites to Inform mTNBC Patient Treatment in the Intensive Trial of Omics in Cancer The ideas and opinions ...
