Researchers from IIT-Madras and the Technical University of Denmark have uncovered how specific combinations of genetic changes can activate hidden cellular pathways, potentially transforming our understanding of complex diseases like cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders. Led by Professor Himanshu Sinha and PhD scholar Srijith Sasikumar, the study reveals unexpected gene interactions that lead to significant alterations in cell behavior. Published in Nature Communications, the research not only identifies the nature of these cellular changes but also elucidates their timing and mechanisms, providing crucial insights into disease progression.
