Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the lymphocytes, a kind of white blood cell. Aggressive B-cell lymphomas are particularly challenging to treat. The usual way to see if treatment has worked is by using special scans like FDG-PET/CT. These scans show if there are any signs of cancer left. Bu
Ever heard of SIRT6? It's like a superhero protein in your cells, helping them stay young and healthy. So, how does it do this? Well, first, it helps fix damaged DNA. Imagine your cells have roads that sometimes get potholes; SIRT6 finds those potholes and fixes t
So. Think about this. In the a long time ago a bunch of movies showed us dinosaurs and a amazing of a park made fun themes. It was way long ago. Now, our new world of dinosaurs is now "Rebrothed. " Mammals are left, and in a kind of tests, but now these fake dinosaurs are causing a storm and doub
Deep in the Mojave Desert, a shocking crime unfolded, driven by greed and cruelty. The story begins with a man named Michael living in Newport Beach, California. He was a successful business owner and clearly had considerable wealth. Michael's roommate, Mary Barnes, mentioned that Michael wasn't fl
Long ago, way back in 1786, a British judge named William Jones had a eureka moment. He noticed something strange. Words in languages like Sanskrit and Latin were way too similar to be a coincidence. He figured they must have come from the same place. This idea gave birth to the concept of the Indo-
Epigenetic clocks measure DNA methylation to guess a person's biological age. These are different to the age shown on our birth certificate. However. there are still many unknowns about how lifestyle factors and physiological conditions can influence these epigenetic markers in Asian populations.
Imagine having a flashlight that only lights up where you want it to. Scientists have created something similar for tiny, mysterious pieces of RNA in our cell powerhouses, called mitochondria. These RNAs, called noncoding RNAs, are important but tough to spot. The trick? Using DNA like tiny, clever
It's been nearly 50 years since the body of Dawn Momohara, a 16-year-old student from McKinley High School in Honolulu, was found. The close-knit community was shaken by the tragic discovery. Dawn was partially clothed, with an orange cloth around her neck, and signs of sexual assault. The case rema
Ever wondered if damaged sperm DNA really affects IVF success? Scientists have been debating this for a while. Some say a high sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) means poor embryo quality. But recent studies show it's not that simple. First, let’s talk numbers. The threshold for diagnosing male in
Have you ever wondered how proteins find their way along DNA? They don't just land on the perfect spot every time. Scientists have been exploring how proteins move along DNA, focusing on their binding and unbinding. Imagine proteins sliding along a twisty road (DNA) with electricity and bonding inte
