Mathew Knowles is an entertainment mogul and famous father to daughters Beyoncé and Solange. But these days, he's focused on sharing a story of survival. Knowles was diagnosed with male breast cancer in 2019, making the announcement to Michael Strahan on "Good Morning America." In the years since his diagnosis, he's recovered and become an advocate, namely for genetic testing.

Discovery advances development of new therapeutic options for cancer and other diseases. A research team led by the University of California, Irvine has engineered an efficient new enzyme that can produce a synthetic genetic material called threose nucleic acid. The ability to synthesize artificial chains of TNA, which is inherently more stable than DNA, advances the discovery of potentially more powerful, precise therapeutic options to treat cancer and autoimmune, metabolic and infectious diseases.

PWAS (proteome-wide association study) is an innovative genetic association approach that complements widely used methods like GWAS (genome-wide association study). The PWAS approach involves consecutive phases. Initially, machine learning modeling and probabilistic considerations quantify the impact of genetic variants on protein-coding genes' biochemical functions.

Retrotransposable elements (RTEs) are common mobile genetic elements comprising ∼42% of the human genome. RTEs play critical roles in gene regulation and function, but how they are specifically involved in complex diseases is largely unknown. Here, we investigate the cellular heterogeneity of RTEs using 12 single-cell transcriptome profiles covering three neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis.
