ABSTRACT Background R‐Loops are three‐stranded DNA/RNA hybrids implicated in immune responses. Their role in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, particularly in dental pulp regeneration under inflammation, remains unclear. Methods Rat pulpo‐dentinal complex (PDC) injury models and LPS‐stimulated human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) were used.

CpG Islands and Double-Minute Chromosomes
Double-minute chromosomes (DMs) amplify oncogenes in human tumors. The organization of genomic DNA in four independently isolated DMs amplifying the DHFR (dihydrofolate reductase) gene has been compared by mapping locations of CpG islands. When cleaved with methylation-sensitive rare-cutting restriction endonucleases, three hypomethylated GC-rich DNA ...

Durum Wheat cv. Svevo Reference Genome Rel.2.0: A Comprehensive Tool for Wheat Genomics
ABSTRACT Advancements in plant genome sequencing and assembly have enabled the production of increasingly accurate and contiguous genome sequences. Here, we present the chromosome‐level assembly of the durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum, cv. Svevo) reference genome produced using accurate long‐reads, optical mapping and Hi‐C. The new assembly

DNA methylation and chromatin structure: The puzzling CpG islands [PDF]
DNA methylation is the epigenetic modification,which introduces 5mC as fifth base onto DNA. As for the distribution of 5rnCs, it is well known that they distribute themselves in a non-random fashion in genomic DNA so that methylation pattern is ...

Aim Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a leading cause of disability and carries a high risk of suicide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are epigenetic regulators implicated in MDD and can be regulated by DNA methylation, potentially reshaping downstream gene networks.

DNA methylation correlates of chronological age in diverse human tissue types
Background While the association of chronological age with DNA methylation (DNAm) in whole blood has been extensively studied, the tissue-specificity of age-related DNAm changes remains an active area of research. Studies investigating the association of

The topography of nullomer-emerging mutations and their relevance to human disease
Nullomers are short DNA sequences (11–18 base pairs) that are absent from a genome; however, they can emerge due to mutations. Here, we characterize all possible putative human nullomer-emerging single base pair mutations, population variants and disease-

Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

Abstract Epigenetic markers, particularly DNA methylation, are promising tools for monitoring athlete health and training due to their role in cellular regulation, exercise responsiveness and molecular stability. However, exercise‐induced epigenetic changes in peripheral blood in trained individuals remain unexplored.

CpG islands in chromatin organization and gene expression
CpG islands are stretches of DNA sequence that are enriched in the (CpG)n repeat and are present in close association with all housekeeping genes as well as some tissue-specific genes in the mammalian genome.
