Three genetic modifiers may alter inherited Alzheimer’s onset and progression
Autosomal dominant Alzheimer’s disease (ADAD) is a genetically inherited form of Alzheimer’s disease that accounts for only about 1% of Alzheimer’s disease cases. However, because individuals with the gene mutations are extremely likely to develop Alzh…

Same carcinogen, different tumors: Mouse study reveals the role of genetic background
Why do cancers develop differently in different people—even when they are exposed to the same risk factors? An international research group, including the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), has demonstrated in mice that an organism’s genetic makeup …

Personalized gene therapy helps teen with rare form of severe epilepsy walk independently
SCN2A-related developmental epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) is a rare, severe form of childhood epilepsy and one of the most common causes of monogenic autism. The condition is caused by single mutations in the sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit…
