Epigenetic regulation of angiogenesis and its therapeutics
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from preexisting ones, is essential for normal development, wound healing, and tissue repair. However, dysregulated angiogenesis is implicated in various pathological conditions, including cancer, diabetic

Potential epigenetic molecular regulatory networks in ocular neovascularization
Neovascularization is one of the many manifestations of ocular diseases, including corneal injury and vascular diseases of the retina and choroid. Although anti-VEGF drugs have been used to effectively treat neovascularization, long-term use of anti ...

A Novel Loop: Mutual Regulation Between Epigenetic Modification and the Circadian Clock
In response to periodic environmental fluctuations generated by the rotation of the earth, nearly all organisms have evolved an intrinsic timekeeper, the circadian clock, which can maintain approximate 24-h rhythmic oscillations in biological processes ...

Epigenetic modifications in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Over the last decades, genetic factors for rheumatoid diseases like the HLA haplotypes have been studied extensively. However, during the past years of research, it has become more and more evident that the influence of epigenetic processes on the development of rheumatic diseases is probably as strong as the genetic background of a patient. Epigenetic

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
