…time. Understanding the molecular and genetic factors at play in depression is critical to developing effective treatment methods to address it and help bring these numbers of incidence and mortality down,…
Researchers at Epigentek recently developed a new and breakthrough approach to identify the “fifth base” of RNA, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) to efficiently study RNA methylation in a practical and cost-effective manner….
…known as atherosclerosis. Characterized by the accumulation of inflammatory cells and fats in arteries, this disease often precedes strokes and heart attacks. Blood flow and the natural curves of the…
…artifact of the experiment performed. Indeed, tissue taken from the susceptible mice showed fewer oligodendrocytes, and the myelin coverage in this brain region was noticeably and consistently irregular, shorter, and…
…DNA methylation patterns in corals, more specifically in a species found in the Indo-Pacific region called Platygyra daedalea. DNA methylation is a commonly occurring epigenetic mark that associates primarily with…
…alter the DNA sequence itself; instead, they transiently modify a cell’s ability to interpret specific genes, influencing which proteins are produced. Primary mechanisms underlying epigenetic changes include DNA methylation, histone…
…study the epigenome and transcriptome of a single cell at the same time. This novel approach could enhance our understanding of the link between gene expression and DNA methylation in…
…study with Rafael Maldonado. Epigenetics, which is involved in the interplay between genes and the environment, seems crucial in the susceptibility towards developing food addiction. DNA methylation, histone modifications, and…
…overall response rate, the FDA’s approval of tazemetostat reflects the limited treatment options currently available. As Robert Bazemore, president and CEO of Epizyme points out, tazemetostat is “the first and…
