A new study found a way to regulate the cardiac muscle cells through modification of nerve cells even after birth. Through this approach, the heart cells that were lost upon diseases and heart attacks could regenerate and make bring back the organ's original functions.
Researchers recently said genes may in some way go towards the explanation of the reason a common yet poorly understood gut condition, specifically irritable bowel syndrome or IBS, is frequently associated with anxiety.
Biracial twins Jakob and Joshua from Maryland has caught the attention of many people when they were born, although they are not the first pair of twins to have different skin complexions. So, how is this possible?
New research from North Carolina State University scientists showed that genes can identify, respond to, and filter coded information in signals. This shows how a single mechanism can create reactions from a single gene.
In a study, researchers explored the potential link between aging and becoming ill as one gets older. They found that other factors may have led to such diseases than mere age.
New research recently showed one resemblance between a human infant and a bat species and that's babbling. This behavior is said to be a gesture to call the attention of the parents.
A new study involving nearly 11,000 participants with autism shows rare genetic variants parents pass on to their children may result in the latter developing autism.
Researchers have developed a new nanoparticle vector made from polypeptide-based materials that are adaptable to various therapies, including gene therapy, for a more effective delivery system.
One of the greatest mysteries of evolution is the extinction of Neanderthals: once among the apex predators of their time, ruling the Earth for some 300,000 years then suddenly dying out - and a new study suggests it might have something to do with creativity.
