Metformin promotes mitochondrial integrity through AMPK‐signaling in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Metformin mediates mitochondrial quality control in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) fibroblasts carrying mtDNA mutations. At therapeutic levels, metformin activates AMPK signaling to restore mitochondrial dynamics by promoting fusion and restraining fission, while preserving mitochondrial mass, enhancing autophagy/mitophagy and biogenesis ...

Epigenetics-targeted drugs: current paradigms and future challenges

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
Epigenetics governs a chromatin state regulatory system through five key mechanisms: DNA modification, histone modification, RNA modification, chromatin remodeling, and non-coding RNA regulation.

Facultative dosage compensation of developmental genes on autosomes in Drosophila and mouse embryonic stem cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
In Drosophila the Male-Specific Lethal complex (MSLc) mediates upregulation of the single male X chromosome. Here the authors provide evidence that MSL2 also targets autosomal genes required for proper development and that MSL2 binds and similarly ...

The role of lipid metabolism in neuronal senescence

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Disrupted lipid metabolism, through alterations in lipid species or lipid droplet accumulation, can drive neuronal senescence. However, lipid dyshomeostasis can also occur alongside neuronal senescence, further amplifying tissue damage. Delineating how lipid‐induced senescence emerges in neurons and glial cells, and how it contributes to ageing and ...

Effect of Trust in Science on Parental Reactions to Messaging about Children’s Epigenetics-Related Obesity Risk

open access: yesPublic Health Genomics
Introduction: Accumulating evidence suggests that preconception epigenetic changes elevate the risk for obesity throughout the lifespan. Little is known about how parents may react to learning about parent-child epigenetic transmission of ...

Epigenetics protocols

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2012
Thanks to the creative effort of Prof. Trygve O. Tollefsbol (Dept. of Biology, University of Alabama at Birmingham, USA) we can handle the second edition in just seven years of this must needed volume devoted to the study of the epigenome.

Understanding bio‐based polymers: A study of origins, properties, biodegradation and their impact on health and the environment

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of bio‐based polymer sources, their unique functional properties and their environmental impact, and addresses their role as sustainable alternatives. It discusses end‐of‐life options, including composting and anaerobic digestion for renewable energy.
