The gene p53 acts as a tumor suppressor and often is called the ‘guardian of the genome.’ This gene is central to maintaining genomic stability, which prevents mutations from accumulating and leading ...
An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...
Some 17 million Americans are living with genetic mutations tied to an increased risk of getting cancer, Cleveland Clinic researchers warned Monday. And the more than 3,400 mutations identified – ...
Researchers have created the first complete map showing how hundreds of mutations in a key cancer gene affect tumor growth. By testing every possible mutation in a critical hotspot, they found that ...
Researchers in Class of 1942 Professor of Chemistry Matthew D. Shoulders' lab have uncovered a sinister hidden mechanism that can allow cancer cells to survive (and, in some cases, thrive) even when ...
Scientists have created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene influence tumor growth. The study focused on CTNNB1, a gene that produces the protein β-catenin, ...
An international team of scientists headed by researchers at the University of Edinburgh, has created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene, CTNNB1, influence ...
This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American All cancers share ten underlying principles, ...
ARKANSAS (KNWA/KFTA) — UAMS researcher participates in a $2 million funded cancer mutation study.
Researchers at the University of Oslo and Oslo University Hospital have developed a promising new immunotherapy targeting the CTNNB1 gene mutation associated with various aggressive cancers like lung ...
