New research sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human cells. The study demonstrates how these proteins ...

A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that ...

Following a double-strand DNA break, an enzyme called PARP1 helps hold the two strands together —like superglue— and creates a safe zone for other proteins to come repair the damage. We don’t exactly ...

Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) provides funding as a member of The Conversation UK. Sleep isn’t just a luxury, it’s a vital process that helps our bodies repair and rejuvenate. Researchers have ...

Sleep is more than just a way to recharge—it’s essential for our body’s repair and recovery. Researchers have now discovered that sleep quality and timing can influence more than just how refreshed we ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers found that the recruitment of neurons to memory circuits is preceded by a cascade of molecular events induced during learning, which ...

Francesca Storici consults at Tessera Therapeutics. She has received funding from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. Your DNA is continually damaged by sources both ...

A new study uncovers how working at 35,000 feet may disrupt DNA repair and immune function in flight attendants, offering fresh insights into the health risks faced by cabin crews and the urgent need ...

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 ...

Sleep isn't just a luxury, it's a vital process that helps our bodies repair and rejuvenate. Researchers have started to uncover how the quality and timing of sleep can affect more than just how ...
