Recent research shows the bird flu virus may be just a few mutations away from transmitting more readily to humans, which could elevate risk. If you haven’t yet been sick this winter ...

Having two copies of the MTHFR gene mutation may raise your risk for certain health conditions, though more research is needed. You may have the mutation and not find out unless you undergo ...

These findings set the stage for the current studies, which provide the first molecular pictures of KBTBD4 targeting the CoREST complex through interactions induced by both cancer mutations and a ...

However, people with MTHFR gene mutations may find it challenging to absorb and use iron effectively, resulting in iron deficiency anemia. Iron supplements are an effective way to boost iron ...

Medically reviewed by Richard N. Fogoros, MD A folate deficiency is a lack of vitamin B9 (folate). When left untreated, ...

Merck & Co.’s Covid-19 pill is giving rise to new mutations of the virus in some patients, according to a study that underscores the risk of trying to intentionally alter the pathogen’s genetic code.

What's more, maternal folic acid fortification may help counteract partial of the risks of CHD in offspring attributable to MTHFR genetic mutations. Congenital heart disease (CHD) is caused by ...
