Single cell gene expression studies often rely on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) alone. While scRNA-seq reveals which genes are turned on, it does not capture protein expression or changes to ...

Researchers at Kyushu University have discovered a connection between bursts of gene activity and the spatial distance ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs) are a group of genetic disorders that lead to progressive vision loss as the light-sensing cells of the eye—the photoreceptors—die due to mutations in genes ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder that causes progressive memory loss and a decline in mental (i.e., cognitive) abilities. Statistics suggest that between 500,000 ...

Researchers have identified a distinct and reproducible gene expression program associated with neurotransmission in the ...
