The development of Alzheimer's disease may involve not only the genes themselves but also 'DNA methylation (epigenetics)' as ...

An epigenome-wide study of 1,527 Korean adults confirms core lipid–methylation loci and links ABCG1 methylation to the ...

Ketamine and MDMA treatment were associated with changes in DNA methylation, a chemical modification that can influence gene activity, at genes linked to neuroplasticity and immune processes, ...

A new review links EBV-driven lymphoproliferative disorders to disrupted DNA methylation and outlines emerging epigenetic ...

Aging alters DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin organization, and regulatory RNA activity, affecting gene ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics-meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification in which a methyl group is added to a DNA base without changing the underlying DNA sequence. In mammals, the best-known form is 5-methylcytosine (5mC), ...

In the "Amino Up Research Notes," we introduce the research themes that Amino Up is working on in an easy-to-understand way, ...

OCD is a mental health disorder characterized by unwanted, recurring thoughts and repetitive behaviors that can severely interfere with everyday life. Exposure-based psychotherapy is one of the most ...

Epigenetic regulation of DNA methylation in plants underpins genome stability, gene expression and developmental plasticity. Plants deploy multiple pathways to establish, maintain and erase ...

Typically, the information encoded in DNA allows organisms to develop, function, and pass traits across generations. Yet DNA alone does not explain how genes are switched on and off in different cells ...

Spontaneous epimutations are stochastic gains and losses of cytosine methylation that arise from imperfect maintenance across cell divisions. At CG sites, such epimutations can be inherited across ...
