For decades, the fashion world celebrated only one image of beauty: tall, slender women with sleek or curly hair. But Melanie ...

The mechanism of skeletal muscle contraction is a process that relies on calcium signaling. However, the physiological role of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through the ryanodine receptor ...

Researchers engineered mice with a mutation (E3896A) in the RyR1 calcium-binding site, eliminating calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) without affecting depolarization-induced calcium release. The ...

A group of researchers has developed and externally validated the first-ever predictive model to help clinicians identify ...

In a comprehensive Genomic Press Invited Expert Review, researchers from the University of Haifa have synthesized cutting-edge findings on Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), revealing how this complex ...

Genes influence when autism becomes visible, revealing early and late developmental patterns across childhood.

The results challenge a long-held assumption that autism has a unified underlying cause. In the unitary model, genetic ...

Using fruit flies as a model species, researchers will study how individual differences in genetic background and diet can influence susceptibility to metabolic diseases.
