New techniques to detect Y chromosome genes show frequent loss of the Y in tissues of older men. The increase with age is clear: 40% of 60-year-old men show loss of Y, but 57% of 90-year-olds.

Impeccable Cantonese cooking is on show at the Club Rivers restaurant.

By late life, a surprising share of men have blood cells that no longer carry the Y chromosome at all, according to large genetic studies in cohorts such as the UK Biobank. That quiet genetic drift ...

The awe-inspiring process of cell division can turn a fertilized egg into a baby – or a cancerous cell into a malignant tumor. With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process ...

As men age, many quietly lose the Y chromosome in some cells, and scientists now link this hidden change to heart disease, cancer and even shorter lifespans.

New research shows ageing men often lose the Y chromosome in some cells, a change linked to heart disease, cancer, ...

Men tend to lose the Y chromosome from some of their cells as they age — a process once thought to be harmless because the Y ...

New findings are calling into question a long-held theory for how a dividing cell decides to stop the process of mitosis and restart the cell cycle. Chromosomes (blue) and mitoticspindle (green) ...

Accurate chromosome segregation and cell division are central to maintaining genomic integrity and ensuring proper development and tissue homeostasis. These processes rely on a complex network of ...
