Gene therapy that can cross the blood–brain barrier represents a non-invasive way to map gene expression in the brains of ...

Researchers demonstrated that released markers of activity (RMAs), engineered proteins that cross the blood-brain barrier and ...

Some physical traits and neuromuscular abilities occur in only a small percentage of the population. Genetics, muscle ...

Researchers develop synthetic markers that cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing for noninvasive monitoring of the living brain via blood tests.

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

Gene therapy has been successfully used to treat a number of diseases, including immune deficiencies, hereditary blindness, ...

DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning ...

Researchers developed e2MPRA, a high-throughput technique that simultaneously measures cis-regulatory element activity and ...

Getting DNA into a living cell sounds simple, until you remember the cell’s outer membrane acts like a guarded wall. DNA strands carry a negative charge, and they do not cross that wall easily.

Gene therapy has been successfully used to treat a number of diseases, including immune deficiencies, hereditary blindness, hemophilia and, recently, Huntington's disease, a fatal neurological ...

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory postdoc Stan Kerstjens and colleagues have devised a new theory for how the brain organizes ...

Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a common post-surgery condition where bone abnormally forms within soft tissues. A new study out of Mass General Brigham assesses the viability of a simple blood test ...
