Studies show aging men often lose the Y chromosome in some cells, a change now linked to heart disease, cancer, and shorter lifespans.

Men tend to lose the Y chromosome from their cells as they age. But because the Y bears few genes other than for male determination, it was thought this loss would not affect health. But evidence has ...

Researchers discover how much inner-ear damage it takes to affect balance, showing why small declines can trigger major symptoms.

The Y chromosome doesn’t seem to do much except determine sex – but its loss in older men might be linked to heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer’s.

Cancer treatment has made great progress over the past few decades, but many solid tumors remain very difficult to treat.

Kidney aging rarely draws attention until something goes wrong. Over time, these organs quietly lose strength, filter less efficiently, and struggle to keep the body balanced.

Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in previous studies have discovered one reason why: cells ...

The activity of certain neurons may influence our endurance for exercise, and these could be targeted to help us run faster ...

A newly identified protein may hold the key to rejuvenating aging brain cells. Researchers found that boosting DMTF1 can restore the ability of neural stem cells to regenerate, even when age-related ...

A shift toward personalized treatments and programmable cell therapies opens new doors for scientists engineering T cell-based treatments.
