Understanding the Mechanisms by Which Epigenetic Modifiers Avert Therapy Resistance in Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
The development of resistance to anti-cancer therapeutics remains one of the core issues preventing the improvement of survival rates in cancer. Therapy resistance can arise in a multitude of ways, including the accumulation of epigenetic alterations in ...

Antimicrobial resistance and mechanisms of epigenetic regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
The rampant use of antibiotics in animal husbandry, farming and clinical disease treatment has led to a significant issue with pathogen resistance worldwide over the past decades. The classical mechanisms of resistance typically investigate antimicrobial

Small Molecule Inhibitors of KDM5 Histone Demethylases Increase the Radiosensitivity of Breast Cancer Cells Overexpressing JARID1B

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Background: KDM5 enzymes are H3K4 specific histone demethylases involved in transcriptional regulation and DNA repair. These proteins are overexpressed in different kinds of cancer, including breast, prostate and bladder carcinomas, with positive effects

Epigenetic management of major psychosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Epigenetic mechanisms are thought to play a major role in the pathogenesis of the major psychoses (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), and they may be the link between the environment and the genome in the pathogenesis of these disorders.

Epigenetic therapy in gastrointestinal cancer: the right combination

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Gastroenterology, 2016
Epigenetics is a relatively recent field of molecular biology that has arisen over the past 25 years. Cancer is now understood to be a disease of widespread epigenetic dysregulation that interacts extensively with underlying genetic mutations.

Research Progress of Epigenetics in Pathogenesis and Treatment of Malignant Tumors

open access: yesChinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2020
Epigenetic modification is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors. It mainly regulates gene function and expression level through DNA methylation, histone modification, regulation of non-coding RNA and chromatin structure ...

Advancements in the delivery of epigenetic drugs. [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opin Drug Deliv, 2015
Advancements in epigenetic treatments are not only coming from new drugs, but also from modifications or encapsulation of the existing drugs into different formulations leading to greater stability and enhanced delivery to the target site. The epigenome is highly regulated and complex; therefore, it is important that off-target effects of epigenetic ...

Genetic, environmental and stochastic factors in monozygotic twin discordance with a focus on epigenetic differences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic-epidemiological studies on monozygotic (MZ) twins have been used for decades to tease out the relative contributions of genes and the environment to a trait.

From Bench to Bedside: Targeting Epigenetics for Cancer Therapy

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2011
The initiation and progression of cancer not only involves genetic abnormalities, but also epigenetic alterations, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications.

Direct but no transgenerational effects of decitabine and vorinostat on male fertility. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Establishment and maintenance of the correct epigenetic code is essential for a plethora of physiological pathways and disturbed epigenetic patterns can provoke severe consequences, e.g. tumour formation.
