Gene Moles, one of the top guitarists to come out of the Bakersfield sound era of country music, died Sunday April 28 from pulmonary fibrosis, a progressive lung disease, at his home in ...

Decreased levels of the gene p15 represents a way to determine if a nevus, or mole, is transitioning to a melanoma, new research finds. The protein p15 functions to inhibit nevus cell proliferation.

In a groundbreaking endeavor, researchers have successfully transferred a longevity gene from naked mole rats to mice, resulting in improved health and an extension of the mouse's lifespan. The ...

Naked mole rats are very unusual animals. They live underground in harsh environments and have complex social structures. They are also highly resistant to age-related diseases like cancer and ...

To study whether the benefits of HMM-HA could be transferred to other animal species, we generated a transgenic mouse overexpressing naked mole-rat hyaluronic acid synthase 2 gene (nmrHas2 ...

The mice with the naked mole-rat’s version of the hyaluronan synthase 2 gene had better protection against cancers, had less inflammation in different parts of their body, and had a much ...

As the mice with the naked mole rat version of the gene aged, they had less inflammation in different parts of their bodies - inflammation being a hallmark of aging - and maintained a healthier gut.

In a groundbreaking endeavor, researchers at the University of Rochester have successfully transferred a longevity gene from naked mole rats to mice, resulting in improved health and an extension ...

In a groundbreaking endeavor, researchers at the University of Rochester have successfully transferred a longevity gene from naked mole rats to mice, resulting in improved health and an extension of ...

by Smithsonian's National Zoo A research team at the University of Rochester has reported that transplanting genes that are thought to be involved in longevity in naked mole rats living ...

However, changes in the level of gene expression can cause nevi to become melanomas. Dermatologists surmise that 30 to 40 percent of melanomas (approximately 30,000 cases per year) may arise in ...
