New research shows persistent DNA lesions in stem cells contribute to mutations, with links to blood cancers and external mutagens.

In a groundbreaking shift in our understanding of mutations, researchers have discovered types of DNA damage in healthy cells that can remain unrepaired for years. While most types of DNA damage are ...

The authors examine the role of Numb, a Notch inhibitor, in intestinal stem cell self-renewal in Drosophila during homeostasis and regeneration. This is an important study providing evidence of a Numb ...
