Past psychology research suggests that there is a strong relationship between difficult experiences during childhood and the ...

Findings published in Clinical Epigenetics underscore the impact of differentially methylated regions in pregnancy ...

Scientists unveil the androgen clock, a precise epigenetic tool to measure long-term androgen exposure and its role in aging ...

Not all genes are active at all times. DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms that cells use to control gene expression. This straightforward experiment demonstrated that it was ...

Dopamine, serotonin, and histamine carry messages between neurons. They can also influence circadian gene expression ...

A little-known mouse protein disrupts cancer-causing chemical changes to genes associated with human colorectal cancer cells ...

Research published in Nature Ecology & Evolution introduces a novel method for inferring DNA methylation patterns in non-skeletal tissues from ancient specimens, providing new insights into human ...

The epigenetic modification, DNA methylation, is characterized by 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) and found in specific genomic ...

In early embryogenesis, DNA is largely devoid of methylation (top left). Post implantation, de novo methylation begins (red circles), mediated primarily by DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase ...

Researchers from Peking University have unveiled a groundbreaking approach to DNA data storage, which leverages enzymatic ...

A research team led by Prof. Qin Guozheng from the Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has unveiled a ...

Childhood stress can impact the epigenetic profile of sperm. These results may also have practical implications for future ...
