Bisphenols, Toxic Elements, and Potentially Toxic Elements in Ready-to-Eat Fish and Meat Foods and Their Associated Risks for Human Health

Toxics
In this study, simultaneous exposure to bisphenols and toxic and potentially toxic elements from the consumption of ready-to-eat foods was assessed. In total, 120 different ready-to-eat foods purchased in different Sicilian supermarkets and online shops ...

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine localizes to enhancer elements and is associated with survival in glioblastoma patients

Nature Communications, 2016
Glioblastomas have distorted epigenomes. Here, the authors compare the genome-wide profiles of 5-methylcytosine and 5- hydroxymethylcytosine in glioblastoma and prefrontal cortex tissue reporting a correlation between these profiles and patients ...

DNA on the move: mechanisms, functions and applications of transposable elements

FEBS Open Bio
Transposons are mobile genetic elements that have invaded all domains of life by moving between and within their host genomes. Due to their mobility (or transposition), transposons facilitate horizontal gene transfer in bacteria and foster the evolution ...

Evaluation of Environmentally Important Elements from Glacial Ice-Water and Associated Glacial Sediments

Earth
Glaciers are significant sources of fresh water on planet Earth. The Hindukush–Karakoram–Himalayan (HKH) glaciers provide the water supply to more than half of the human population of the globe, for agricultural activities, biodiversity survival, and ...

Convergent evolution of noncoding elements associated with short tarsus length in birds

BMC Biology
Background Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar traits in unrelated lineages across the Tree of Life. Various genomic signatures can help identify cases of convergent evolution at the molecular level, including changes in ...

Characterizing heterogeneous cis-regulatory elements in gene regulatory programs associated with breast cancer

Genome Medicine
Background Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) control oncogene expression and malignant phenotypes. The high clinicopathological heterogeneity of cancer cannot be explained by gene expression alone, being attributed to CRE heterogeneity.
