Genetic Mutations May Directly Influence Epigenetic Clocks and Aging
- Friday February 14, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A study published in Nature Aging suggests a direct link between genetic mutations and epigenetic clocks, reshaping current theories on biological aging. Researchers found that DNA mutations influence methylation patterns, potentially driving the aging process. This challenges the idea that epigenetic changes are merely reflections of aging rather ...

Bacteria-Based Cellulose Bandage Speeds Up Plant Healing and Growth
- Friday February 14, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A bacteria-based cellulose bandage has been found to enhance plant healing and regeneration. Studies show that wounds treated with these patches heal faster, with over 80 percent recovery in a week compared to less than 20 percent in untreated plants. The cellulose also speeds up root and leaf development in plant cuttings. Researchers attribute th...

First Mouse with Two Fathers Thrives into Adulthood, Marking New Scientific Milestone
- Thursday January 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have achieved a major milestone by creating a bi-paternal mouse, marking progress in stem cell science and reproductive biology. By modifying imprinting genes, researchers overcame previous barriers to unisexual mammalian reproduction. While only a small percentage of the engineered embryos survived to birth, the research demonstrates th...

Neanderthal Blood Protein Incompatibilities May Have Contributed to Extinction
- Thursday January 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Research indicates that genetic differences in Neanderthal blood proteins may have played a role in their extinction. Scientists discovered that Neanderthals had a rare RhD blood type, which was incompatible with the blood types of Denisovans and Homo sapiens. This incompatibility could have led to hemolytic disease in mixed-species offspring, resu...

Human Outer Ears May Have Evolved from Ancient Fish Gills, Study Finds
- Monday January 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Human outer ears may have evolved from the cartilage in ancient fish gills, according to recent research. Gene-editing experiments demonstrated a genetic link between fish gills and mammalian ears, with findings suggesting this transformation dates back millions of years. Researchers tested genetic enhancers in zebrafish, mice, and lizards, uncover...

Lake Mendota's Bacteria Are Stuck in an Evolutionary Loop, Finds Study
- Saturday January 4, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Research in Lake Mendota reveals seasonal bacterial evolution, with microbes adapting to environmental shifts over 20 years. Despite rapid changes, many species return to prior genetic states, highlighting cyclical evolution patterns. Extreme weather events, like those seen in 2012, led to lasting genetic adaptations, offering insights into how mic...
