The Homeobox Genes: Classification, Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Overview of the homeobox gene superfamily and its pathophysiological roles. The homeobox superfamily comprises several major classes, including ANTP, PRD, TALE, LIM, POU, and others. Among these, the HOX clusters (A–D) play critical roles in embryonic development specifically in conferring cellular identity, regulating morphogenesis, and guiding axial ...

NR3C1, LAX1, and RCAN3 as Circulating Epigenetic Biomarkers for Prognosis and Chemotherapy Response Prediction in Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Clinical utility of liquid biopsy‐based epigenetic profiling in PDAC management. Aberrant methylation of LAX1, RCAN3, and NR3C1 was identified in cfDNA from mPDAC patients, highlighting their potential as non‐invasive epigenetic biomarkers. Methylation levels of these genes showed prognostic value, supporting their relevance for patient stratification ...

Isocitrate Dehydrogenase‐Mutant Astrocytomas: Risk Stratification and Therapeutic Advance

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
This graphical abstract synthesizes the core logic of our revised review by linking integrated diagnosis, risk stratification, and trajectory‐based management in IDH‐mutant astrocytomas across CNS WHO Grades 2–4. It highlights lineage‐defining molecular classification (IDH mutation with core co‐alterations), integrated histomolecular grading, and key ...

USP44, ZNF454, and GPRC5B ctDNA Methylation Markers in Breast Cancer: Limited Clinical Relevance for Disease Monitoring and Tumor Characteristics

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 260-269, April 2026.
We selected breast cancer‐specific DNA methylation markers using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We analyzed the methylation and expression patterns of candidate genes in breast cancer cell lines, ctDNA, and tissue samples. The relationship between ctDNA methylation markers and the clinicopathological features of breast cancer patients was investigated.

Profiling ascidian promoters as the primordial type of vertebrate promoter

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background CpG islands are observed in mammals and other vertebrates, generally escape DNA methylation, and tend to occur in the promoters of widely expressed genes.

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 ...
