Innovative Takumi-shaped DNA hydrogels exhibit prolonged retention and drug release, showcasing their potential as ...

Hydrogels are polymeric materials with three-dimensional network structures containing large amounts of water. They serve as sustained-release drug delivery systems as they can encapsulate various ...

DNA has gained significant attention as a promising hydrogel material thanks to its customizable physicochemical properties, ...

Researchers have revealed new details about the CRISPR-Cas5-HNH/Cascade complex, a variant of the type I-E CRISPR-Cas system, ...

Stanford Medicine researchers sifted through thousands of single nucleotide mutations in DNA to identify fewer than 400 that are functionally associated with inherited cancer risk.

DNA hydrogels are biocompatible drug delivery systems for targeted therapeutic interventions. Conventional DNA hydrogels, formed with many DNA nanostructure units, lead to increased preparation costs ...

The Double Helix” paints Watson and Crick as lone pioneers while downplaying the contributions of others, most notably of ...

Human genes that encode proteins often contain non-coding segments known as introns. Removing introns is crucial for the proper expression of genetic information. Understanding how our cells ...

This study identifies 47,350 enhancers active in human neurons during differentiation and links some to genes involved in ...

A team led by University of Pittsburgh School of Public Health geneticists has shown, for the first time, that a gene "silencer" that resides in junk DNA is directly sparing people from a devastating ...
