New gene-editing approach shows promise in treating Huntington’s disease in mice
Huntington’s disease is caused by repetitive «stutters» in DNA—specifically repeated CAG sequences—that expand abnormally over time, leading to toxic protein accumulation that contributes to the progression of the disease. There is currently no cure fo…

Liver tumors form without detectable driver mutations in mice, revealing epigenetic route
Cancers can develop through epigenetic pathways even without driver gene mutations (DGMs), according to a study from Science Tokyo. Researchers uncovered the YAP1–TEAD–TET1 axis, which triggers DNA demethylation and activates multiple oncogenes in hepa…
