Global research progress of gut microbiota and epigenetics: bibliometrics and visualized analysis

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundGut microbiota is an important factor affecting host health. With the further study of the mechanism of gut microbiota, significant progress has been made in the study of the link between gut microbiota and epigenetics.

Nutrigenetics, epigenetics and gestational diabetes: consequences in mother and child

Epigenetics, 2019
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is the most common metabolic condition during pregnancy and may result in short- and long-term complications for both mother and offspring.

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Cancer epigenetics and epigenetical therapy

Journal of Experimental and Integrative Medicine, 2016
Gene expression mechanism are controlled and coordinated by epigenetic regulators, including histone modification, CpG-island methylation and chromatin looping. Imbalance of these epigenetic marks (epimutation) can lead to many anomalies including cancer. In recent years, research has suggested that cancer growth and survive through the combined effect

The preconception environment and sperm epigenetics

Andrology, 2020
Infertility is a common reproductive disorder, with male factor infertility accounting for approximately half of all cases. Taking a paternal perceptive, recent research has shown that sperm epigenetics, such as changes in DNA methylation, histone ...

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...

Epigenetic priming of mammalian embryonic enhancer elements coordinates developmental gene networks

Genome Biology
Background Embryonic development requires the accurate spatiotemporal execution of cell lineage-specific gene expression programs, which are controlled by transcriptional enhancers.

The role of DNA methylation in epigenetics of aging

Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2018
Recent research suggests that epigenetics, especially DNA methylation, plays a mechanistic role in aging. Epigenetic clocks, which measure changes in a few hundred specific CpG sites, can accurately predict chronological age in a variety of species ...

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Epigenetics—Innovations and Misconceptions

Natural Sciences
Epigenetics is a scientific field whose definition has changed over time. Established in the 1940s by C.H. Waddington by synthesis from embryology and genetics, the term “epigenetics” is now mainly used to describe the role of chromatin modifications in ...
