Researchers identify causative gene in mouse model of inherited lethal arrhythmiaA research group led by University of Tsukuba has discovered a mouse pedigree that presents spontaneous sudden cardiac death attributed to inherited ventricular arrhythmia. This was identified through electrocardiographic screening of a large-scale, randomly mutagenized mouse library.

Inherited genes play a larger role in melanoma risk than previously believedWhen it comes to skin cancer, most people think of warnings about sunburn and tanning beds. Thoughts of 'cancer genes' or inherited risks are reserved for diseases like breast cancer or colon cancer. A new study challenges this status quo by showing that genetics play a larger role in melanoma risk than recognized.

Limiting certain light exposure has potential to prevent inherited retinal dystrophyA joint team effort led by Dr. Haruhisa Inoue (Professor, Department of Cell Growth and Differentiation, CiRA) has established iPS cells from two patients with EYS-associated retinal dystrophies (EYS-RD) and converted them into retinal organoids to study the root cause of this debilitating visual disability. The study is published in JCI Insight.
