DNA Methylation and Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2002
DNA methylation is a major epigenetic modification of the genome that has the potential to silence gene expression. Recently, the role of epigenetic alteration as a distinct and crucial mechanism to regulate genes governing cell proliferation in atherosclerosis has emerged.

DNA Methylation in Acacia mangium ln vitro and Ex-vitro buds, in relation to their within-shoot position, age and leaf morphology of the shoots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
DNA methylation was analyzed in Acacia mangium Willd. buds collected from in vitro and field growing shoots from the same clone and its juvenile offspring.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

The DNA methylome of human sperm is distinct from blood with little evidence for tissue-consistent obesity associations.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2020
Epidemiological research suggests that paternal obesity may increase the risk of fathering small for gestational age offspring. Studies in non-human mammals indicate that such associations could be mediated by DNA methylation changes in spermatozoa that ...

The DNA methylation inhibitor 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine retards cell growth and alters gene expression in canine mammary gland tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Disruption of gene expression by DNA methylation changes is widely involved in tumorigenesis. Here,to investigate DNA methylation changes in canine, we treated a canine mammary gland tumor cell line with a DNA methylation inhibitor, 5-aza-2 ...

SAM-DNMT3A, a strategy for induction of genome-wide DNA methylation, identifies DNA methylation as a vulnerability in ER-positive breast cancers

open access: yesNature Communications
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that plays a critical role in regulating gene expression. DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors, inhibit global DNA methylation and have been a key tool in studies of DNA methylation. A major bottleneck is the lack

Regulated DNA Methylation and the Circadian Clock: Implications in Cancer

open access: yesBiology, 2014
Since the cloning and discovery of DNA methyltransferases (DNMT), there has been a growing interest in DNA methylation, its role as an epigenetic modification, how it is established and removed, along with the implications in development and disease.

DNA methylation underpins the epigenomic landscape regulating genome transcription in Arabidopsis

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
Background It is challenging to determine the effect of DNA methylation on the epigenetic landscape and the function in higher organisms due to the lack of DNA methylation-free mutants.

From omics to AI—mapping the pathogenic pathways in type 2 diabetes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Integrating multi‐omics data with AI‐based modelling (unsupervised and supervised machine learning) identify optimal patient clusters, informing AI‐driven accurate risk stratification. Digital twins simulate individual trajectories in real time, guiding precision medicine by matching patients to targeted therapies.

Epigenome-wide association study reveals decreased average methylation levels years before breast cancer diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Interest in the potential of DNA methylation in peripheral blood as a biomarker of cancer risk is increasing. We aimed to assess whether epigenome-wide DNA methylation measured in peripheral blood samples obtained before onset of the disease is ...
