Because so many diseases, such as cancer, involve epigenetic changes, it seems reasonable to try to counteract these modifications with epigenetic treatments. These changes seem an ideal target ...
Epigenetic modifiers, enzymes that catalyze covalent modifications on chromatin, play a pivotal role in establishing stable states for gene expression and cellular identity.
Epigenetic alterations have emerged as critical factors in the pathogenesis of brain cancer, particularly gliomas. This article explores the impact of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) on the ...
The following is a summary of “Histone Modifications and DNA Methylation in Psoriasis: A Cellular Perspective,” published in the January 2025 issue of Allergy and Immunology by Pan et al. Epigenetic ...
New findings from researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine have clarified the interplay between two major molecular contributors to aging: genetic mutations and ...
Their findings, published in Nature Aging, describe a never-before-seen link between the two most accepted explanations: random genetic mutations and predictable epigenetic modifications.
