…issues. Research conducted on this has found that an individual’s global DNA methylation profile can be affected by coming in contact with heavy metal toxicants. A global DNA methylation profile…
…compared and tested with and without DNA methylation. They also found that DNA methylation impacts a bee’s relearning, particularly when they paired the sugar with a different scent. “When the…
…MET-induced reelin promoter hypermethylation, reelin mRNA downregulation, and PPI and SI deficits.” Promising? Yes, but the road to a cure is a long one. Let us hope the men and…
…and the Helmholtz Research Center for Environmental Health in Munich investigated DNA methylation and what it reveals about someone’s health and his or her mortality risk. DNA methylation is one…
…cancers and inflammatory diseases. Interestingly enough, our diet can have a profound effect on histone acetylation. The compounds butyrate (butter and cheese) and sulforaphane (broccoli and cruciferous vegetables) are both…
…the “user and controller” of them. And, through simple lifestyle changes, we may be able to modify our gene activity and ultimately improve our overall health and well-being. This self-help…
…active histone mark H3K27ac. The results surprised Jakobsson and his team. He said, “If you shut down DNA methylation in mouse cells, they don’t survive, but when DNA methylation was…
…similarities between pig and human physiology. The method uses standard MRI technology and established biological markers to directly image DNA methylation changes in living subjects. DNA methylation is a stable…
…methylation, or the process by which methyl groups are added to the DNA molecule. Prior studies have found that sleep deprivation can increase DNA methylation levels in circadian clock genes…
…heat and toxins, affect DNA indirectly by modifying certain epigenetic factors or mechanisms. These mechanisms produce compounds that attach to the DNA and interact with the genetic material, yet do…
