Researchers from Radboud University Medical Center and University of Basel have discovered new genetic causes of inherited ...

Huntington's disease is caused by an inherited genetic change that causes production of an altered protein. This leads to nerve damage in areas of the brain that control movement and thinking.

By studying genetic data from nearly 140,000 IVF embryos, scientists have with unprecedented detail revealed why fewer than ...

Discovery of genetic glitches in gene formatting (RNU4-2 mutations) discloses a new cause for blindness, solving retinal ...

This work not only identified the genetic cause of RP but also further highlights the role that noncoding genes can have in genetic disorders.

In patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), crucial cells in the retina known as rods and cones die over time; night ...

Study has combined genome-wide data with plasma proteomics from a Ugandan cohort to map hundreds of genetic regulators of ...
