The immune system's gradual decline with age, known as immune aging, increases susceptibility to infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers. T cells, crucial for adaptive immunity, undergo ...

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Alternative splicing, a clever way a cell generates many different variations of messenger RNAs — single-stranded RNAs involved in protein synthesis — and proteins from the same ...

In a new study, researchers demonstrate that deregulation of a protein called RBFOX2, involved in RNA splicing, contributes to the progression and metastasis of pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer ...

Alternative splicing (AS) is a key technique for increasing transcriptome and proteomic diversity from a small genome. Almost all human gene transcripts are alternatively spliced, resulting in protein ...

What eventually becomes a graduate student’s PhD thesis work is rarely the project they initially pursued. However, in rare cases like with recent PhD graduate Dr. April Lo from Dr. Alice Berger’s Lab ...
