The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans continues to serve as an essential model for understanding germline stem cell biology. Central to this field is the precise regulation of the balance between stem ...

Germline testing is a genetic screening that looks for inherited gene mutations found in every cell.  It can identify ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine’s Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center and Human Genome Sequencing Center investigated the extent to which forms of genetic variation called germline or ...

The team genetically arrested germline differentiation at discrete stages in turquoise killifish and meticulously examined the impact of different infertility "flavors" on life history. A ...

A Stanford Medicine study of thousands of breast cancers has found that inherited gene sequences may be powerful predictors of the breast cancer type that might develop decades later, and how deadly ...

Accurate genomic profiling is essential for clinical decision-making and optimizing treatment recommendations. Tumor-only sequencing has been adopted by many laboratories to guide precision oncology ...

JCO Precision Oncology Conversations features discussions with leading authors of JCO Precision Oncology articles, hosted by Dr. Abdul Rafeh Naqash. Join our experts in engaging conversations as they ...

An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...

The study revealed unexpected and sex-specific effects of germline regulation on longevity and somatic repair in vertebrates. Contrary to classical evolutionary theories, it turns out that changing ...
