Tumor profiling reveals enzyme as a candidate target in aggressive brain cancer
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators have identified candidate treatment targets and potential prognostic markers for high-grade glioma, an aggressive brain cancer, in children, adolescents and young adults.

Genetic risk for PTSD may vary depending on the type of trauma experienced, large study suggests
A study reveals that your genes may make you more vulnerable to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from certain types of trauma—particularly childhood neglect—than from others.

Neuron cell bodies switch gene programs to steer growing axons, study finds
A new discovery by neuroscientists at Brown University’s Carney Institute for Brain Science challenges long-held beliefs in neurobiology about how neurons extend axons to reach their targets.

Hidden proteins in ‘non-coding’ RNA may offer new clues to cancer progression
Scientists have long believed that large stretches of our genetic material, known as long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), help regulate genes but do not produce proteins. A new study by Stav Zok and Professor Michal Linial from the Hebrew University of Jerus…

FMN1 gene is essential for hearing, study reveals
A new study has identified FMN1 as a gene required for hearing in both humans and mice, revealing a previously unknown role for formin-1 in maintaining the microscopic cellular architecture of the inner ear. The findings also point to a connection betw…
