…like histone modification, DNA methylation, small non-coding RNAs and chromatin architecture. And, these epigenetic mechanisms regulate nearly all biological processes from conception to death, including genome reprogramming and cell differentiation…
…the processes of NK cells, including chromatin remodeling, DNA methylation, histone modifications, and RNA modifications. To better understand NK cells’ role in tumor immune surveillance, scientists from The University of…
…(DNAm) modifications are reliable markers for assessing long-term environmental effects. They’re well-suited for large-scale studies due to their stability and variability. Researchers use DNAm to estimate chronological age accurately and…
…in the inflammatory protein, the team also assessed a popular epigenetic mark known as DNA methylation. DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism known to suppress the expression of genes. It’s…
…the DNA methylation pattern of the CRHR1 gene. DNA from patients diagnosed with panic disorder was isolated, treated with sodium bisulfite and compared to DNA isolated from healthy patients. Those…
…to toxins, and psychosocial stress – on the child’s health via epigenetic mechanisms. This collection of animal and human studies investigating epigenetic marks of interest, including DNA methylation, histone modification…
…protein, SRAP1, binds to Tet-oxidized forms of 5-mC in DNA and selectively cleave DNA containing Tet-oxidized 5-methylcytosine. They also reveal a mechanism for targeted erasure of DNA cytosine methylation through…
…of a subset of genes impacted by age-related adjustments in methylation levels demonstrated an inverse relationship between longevity and methylation drift. Essentially, the more epigenetic change there was, and the…
…of DNA methylation of a certain gene. Credit: Mélanie Couture and Dominic Ouellette. The team of McGill researchers, led by Professor Moshe Szyf from the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics…
…the development of many diseases and conditions. For this new tool, the scientists targeted DNA methylation in particular because it can repress gene activity. The process of DNA methylation occurs…
