Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive condition that begins with tissue damage and gradually leads to loss of kidney ...

Mitochondria are often described as the cell’s power plants, but a wave of new research suggests their genetic material may also hide a critical, underappreciated source of disease. Scientists are ...

A human 'tubuloid' model captures the slow progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), addressing key limitations of animal and stem-cell models ...

New findings show that the mitochondria powering our cells also control the ability of a DNA repair protein to suppress the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which causes zombie-like ...

Mount Sinai scientists developed V2P, a powerful new AI tool that predicts how specific DNA mutations translate into disease, ...

A protein found in our cells has emerged as a secret weapon against biological aging, acting like a glue to repair damaged DNA and ward off neurological degeneration including that seen in motor ...

A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how our bodies sense and respond to stress. The findings of the UC ...

New Houston Methodist research has revealed that a protein associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and ...

Tardigrades, often called water bears or moss piglets, are microscopic creatures that can survive just about anything: boiling heat, freezing cold and crushing pressure. 2 In fact, tardigrades are the ...
