A machine learning model analyzing CpG-based DNA methylation accurately predicted the origin of many different cancer types ...

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have carried out the most detailed mapping to date of the epigenome in the cells ...

A study led by José A. Seoane, Head of the Vall d'Hebron Institute of Oncology's (VHIO) Computational Biology Group ...

MethylScan is a low-cost blood test that detects cancers and organ diseases by analyzing DNA methylation, improving early diagnosis, and identifying disease origin.

Cancer cells excel at evading detection, but subtle chemical differences set them apart from healthy cells. Now, a team of ...

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that impairs movement, and happens when cells in a region of the brain called the basal ganglia become dysfunctional or begin to die. These cells ...

Scientists have unveiled two major CRISPR breakthroughs: a ThermoCas9 variant that can distinguish and cut tumor DNA while sparing healthy cells, and a retron-based editing system adapted from E. coli ...

An AI model has been trained to recognize DNA methylation signatures of 13 different types of cancer. Researchers at the University of Cambridge and Imperial College London (both UK) present an AI ...

CDCA7, whose mutations alter DNA methylation pattern and cause immunodeficiency, is a novel sensor for a special class of methylated DNA. DNA methylation is a process in which a methyl group is ...
