Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a form of progressive dementia interfering with daily living. It is caused by the decline in […] As an embryo develops, its cells must learn what to do with the thousands of genes they’ve been equipped with. […] Active mutations of a certain signaling receptor protein called KIT tyrosine kinase are found in several cancers, such as acute […] Researchers have described a new mechanism by which influenza A viruses (IAV) alter the host immune system and make them […] Researchers have long known that fibrosis – scarred tissue and organs – is caused by a wound healing mechanism that […] Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition that affects more than 2 million adults in the United States.
