As more people start families later in life, understanding the risks associated with late pregnancies has become increasingly important. Chromosomal abnormalities are genetic disorders resulting from ...

Variations in the properties of arabica coffee, such as in taste, caffeine content and disease resistance, are determined by chromosome mutations, according to a recent study. But are these findings ...

Cancer researchers have long treated genetic chaos and epigenetic rewiring as separate engines of disease, two parallel ...

Healthy cells work hard to maintain the integrity of our DNA, but occasionally, a chromosome can get separated from the others and break apart during cell division. The tiny fragments of DNA then get ...

Chromosomal problems in children are more prevalent among late pregnancies primarily due to the age-related decline in egg and sperm quality and the increased risk of genetic mutations and ...

Osaka, Japan – When creating a computer program, errors in the code can introduce bugs to the software. Similarly, errors in our body’s genetic code, DNA, which is stored in structures known as ...

It is crucial in the development of cell and gene therapies to understand the impact of the gene editing process on chromosomal structure. When cells are edited, differentiated, modified, or ...
