The role of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in human cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCell and Tissue Research, 2014
The patterns of DNA methylation in human cancer cells are highly abnormal and often involve the acquisition of DNA hypermethylation at hundreds or thousands of CpG islands that are usually unmethylated in normal tissues. The recent discovery of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) as an enzymatic oxidation product of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) has led to models ...

TET-mediated DNA hydroxymethylation is negatively influenced by the PARP-dependent PARylation

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2022
Background Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation), a posttranslational modification introduced by PARP-1 and PARP-2, has first been implicated in DNA demethylation due to its role in base excision repair. Recent evidence indicates a direct influence of PARP-

Discovery and Evaluation of Cadmium‐Adapted Daphnia pulex Genotypes in a Region of Historical Mining Reveals Adaptation Protects the Germline From Cadmium‐Induced Mutations

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Exposure to chemical pollutants can alter the rate and genome‐wide distribution of germline mutations. However, studies measuring the effects of chemical exposure on mutation rates and spectra have not considered the ecological and evolutionary backgrounds of the studied genotypes, which could influence the rates and patterns of germline ...

5-hydroxymethylcytosine is a key epigenetic regulator of keratinocyte stem cells during psoriasis pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Epigenetic regulation is now known to play an important role in determining stem cell fate during normal tissue development and disease pathogenesis. In this study, we report loss of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) mediated by ten-eleven translocation ...

Circulating Microbial Metabolites Predict Tumor Relapse and Chemotherapy Efficacy in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The value of microbial metabolites in prognosis and treatment response prediction in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remains unclear. Here, through the untargeted metabolomic analysis of plasma in 48 paired NPC patients with or without tumor relapse, we identified distinct circulating metabolite atlases between NPC patients with ...

Vitamin C increases 5-hydroxymethylcytosine level and inhibits the growth of bladder cancer

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2018
Background 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is converted from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) by a group of enzymes termed ten-eleven translocation (TET) family dioxygenases.

Validation of a DNA methylation microarray for 850,000 CpG sites of the human genome enriched in enhancer sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
DNA methylation is the best known epigenetic mark. Cancer and other pathologies show an altered DNA methylome. However, delivering complete DNA methylation maps is compromised by the price and labor-intensive interpretation of single nucleotide methods ...

Osteoarthritis: Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Osteoarthritis is a prevalent degenerative joint disease with a growing global burden. Its development involves complex interactions among epidemiological factors, pathological changes, molecular signaling, and epigenetic regulation. Understanding these mechanisms provides insights into disease progression and supports the development of therapeutic ...

Epigenetic mechanisms and therapeutic innovations in chronic pain‐associated neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1313-1340, April 2026.
Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...
