A study demonstrates that the 'previous state' of blood stem cells plays a decisive role in the subtype of leukemia that develops. The new technique, called STRACK, allows monitoring of the evolution ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have identified genetic changes in blood stem cells from frequent blood donors that support the production of new, non-cancerous cells. Understanding the ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Genomic studies of cancer patients have revealed thousands of mutations linked to tumor development. However, for the vast majority of those mutations, researchers are unsure of how ...

When people donate blood, stem cells in the bone marrow make new blood cells to replace what was lost. This stress can drive the selection of certain clones—groups of blood cells with a slightly ...

For patients with disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, mutations in the same gene could require different treatments, according to new research from Yale School of Medicine (YSM). Many ...
