The mutation burden was associated with increased cellular stress and activation of genes involved in DNA damage responses. "This is the first evidence that the accumulation of somatic mutations is a ...

For decades, the standard explanation for autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis has rested on two pillars: inherited genes and environmental triggers. Now, a growing body of research points to ...

Somatic mosaicism was noted in more than 1 in 5 patients with a systemic autoinflammatory disease (SAID) diagnosis, with a high prevalence among those with vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, ...

Scientists reveal how evolution within our own tissues can drive disease, protect cells, and uncover hidden therapeutic targets for future precision medicine. Somatic genomics uncovers the outcomes of ...

From the time we are conceived and through old age, genetic mutations accumulate in all our tissues, eluding the body’s typically efficient DNA repair machinery and potentially affecting our health ...
