…are linked to changes in DNA methylation very early in one’s life, even as soon as the first and second trimesters. The researchers reported that fetal brain DNA methylation quantitative…
…performed a sleep exam and submitted their DNA for testing. Four sites of DNA methylation were identified and correlated with incidence of EDS in MESA participants, one across all participants…
…both of which are crucial to normal human development. DNA methylation is the epigenetic process of adding a methyl group to the DNA, which results in altered gene expression and…
…monitored for seven or 14 weeks. They monitored changes in the crypt foci, the microbiota of the lumen, and in the DNA methylation patterns. DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification…
…how medicine can intervene and correct individual cases, leading to a higher quality of life and longevity. One key avenue for applying the results of Ecker and Dixon’s research could…
…liable for deactivating parent-specific genes. Reported in Developmental Cell earlier this year, their analysis identified three distinct mechanisms responsible for genomic imprinting, including DNA methylation, polycomb-based repression, and histone 3…
…methylation. Interestingly, the researchers also found a decrease in DNA hydroxymethylation that was specific to the Sirt1 gene. DNA methylation underlies longer lasting experience-dependent changes in gene expression. Although the…
…and RT-PCR assays. The suppressive influence of MenSC on HCC was further examined in vitro, and genome-wide DNA methylation and hydroxymethlation in HCC cells after MenSC treatment were recorded. The…
It is a challenge to determine a cause and effect relationship between a distinct epigenetic mark and the ultimate behavior and function of the affected cell. However, CRISPR/Cas9 has provided…
…of the EpiNext(TM) series of research kits that allows for next-generation sequencing library preparation and analysis of DNA methylation and DNA-protein interaction with tiny amounts of DNA. Specifically, Epigentek’s new…
