Correlation does not equal causation. Every cancer cell has genetic mutations, but not all of those mutations necessarily ...

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 ...

In mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an aggressive form of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, TP53 mutations are known to affect patients’ prognosis—but questions remain. What does the heterogeneity of TP53 ...

Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...

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 ...

A single sperm donor who carries a rare cancer-causing genetic mutation has fathered at least 197 children across 14 countries in Europe, according to a collaborative investigation by 14 European news ...
