Researchers measured the intelligence of 700 family members who had at least one relative carrying the same genetic mutation on chromosome 16, which is known […]
Using painkillers in pregnancy may reduce fertility in subsequent generations, research suggests. Tests in rats found that when a mother was given painkillers during pregnancy, […]
Depression appears to be passed down from mothers to daughters, say researchers who have been looking at similarities in brain structures between generations. The research […]
During spaceflight, astronauts lose bone mineral density, but it is not clear exactly what causes this loss. Scientists trying to understand why recently went fishing […]
Molecular biology, genomics and proteomics methods have been utilized to reveal a non-annotated class of endogenous polypeptides (small proteins and peptides) encoded by short open […]
Diabetes is a chronic disease caused by the loss or dysfunction of the insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas. To date, much of our knowledge about […]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: In this review, we take a combined membrane biologist’s and geneticist’s view of the podocyte, to examine how genetics have informed our […]
Normally, tissues demonstrate a slightly acidic intracellular pH (pHi) and slightly alkaline extracellular pH (pHe). However, proliferating tissues demonstrate transient pH Gradient Reversal i.e. alkalinization […]
Egg’s epigenetic ‘blueprint’ important for placenta development in pregnancy. Researchers have uncovered previously unappreciated means by which epigenetic information contained in the egg influences the […]
