Scientists looked at multiple techniques used to measure the modified viruses deployed in some gene therapy research and treatments. One technique, known as SEC-MALS, was the most precise and accurate ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. In 1999, I defined regenerative medicine as the collection of interventions that restore tissues and organs damaged ...

Treatments aim to bulk up failing hearts to restore their vigour – but can the field move on from past controversy?

LDL Reduction: Studies have found that this therapy successfully reduced LDL cholesterol by up to 62 percent. Let's explain ...

A Yale research team has created a new computer tool that can pinpoint when exactly genes turn on and off over time during brain development - a finding that may one day help doctors identify the ...

Pancreatitis is a complex inflammatory disease driven by both genetic and environmental factors. It poses substantial ...

A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...

A groundbreaking gene-editing therapy developed by Eli Lilly and Verve Therapeutics reduced "bad" LDL cholesterol by up to 62 ...

While gene therapy for cystic fibrosis is still in the research phase, researchers aim to correct the defective gene responsible for the disease. Current research is promising. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is ...

Some gene therapy treatments use modified adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) like the one shown here to deliver therapeutic genetic material into a patient’s cells. In a finding with implications for one ...
