The long non-coding RNA Kcnq1ot1 controls maternal p57 expression in muscle cells by promoting H3K27me3 accumulation to an intragenic MyoD-binding region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: The cell-cycle inhibitor p57kip2 plays a critical role in mammalian development by coordinating cell proliferation and differentiation in many cell types.

Decitabine impact on the endocytosis regulator RhoA, the folate carriers RFC1 and FOLR1, and the glucose transporter GLUT4 in human tumors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundIn 31 solid tumor patients treated with the demethylating agent decitabine, we performed tumor biopsies before and after the first cycle of decitabine and used immunohistochemistry (IHC) to assess whether decitabine increased expression of ...

Epigenetic rejuvenation [PDF]

open access: yesGenes to Cells, 2012
Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells have provided a rational means of obtaining histo‐compatible tissues for ‘patient‐specific’ regenerative therapies (Hanna et al. 2010; Yamanaka & Blau 2010). Despite the obvious potential of iPS cell‐based therapies, there are certain problems that must be overcome before these therapies can become safe and ...

Epigenetic Metalloenzymes

open access: yesCurrent Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
Epigenetics controls the expression of genes and is responsible for cellular phenotypes. The fundamental basis of these mechanisms involves in part the post-translational modifications (PTMs) of DNA and proteins, in particular, the nuclear histones. DNA can be methylated or demethylated on cytosine.

Epigenetic Crosstalk [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2001
In the November 15 issue of Nature, report that disruption of histone methylation in the fungus Neurospora crassa results in the elimination of DNA methylation. This demonstrates that chromatin structure can pattern DNA methylation and suggests that different epigenetic layers engage in complex crosstalk.

From early stress to 12-month development in very preterm infants: Preliminary findings on epigenetic mechanisms and brain growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Very preterm (VPT) infants admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) are at risk for altered brain growth and less-than-optimal socio-emotional development.

Epigenetics and immunometabolism in diabetes and aging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Significance: A strong relationship between hyperglycemia, impaired insulin pathway and cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetes (T2D) is linked to oxidative stress and inflammation.

Epigenetic reprogramming at estrogen-receptor binding sites alters 3D chromatin landscape in endocrine-resistant breast cancer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Endocrine therapy resistance occurs often in estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. Here, the authors find that 3D epigenome remodelling at ER-bound enhancer-promoter interactions is a key mechanism underlying endocrine resistance.

Role of epigenetics in cardiovascular diseases: An out and out check

open access: yesIntelligent Pharmacy, 2023
Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field that deals with the study of heritable changes in gene expression that occur without a change in DNA sequence.

“Epic-Genetics”: An exploration of preservice helping professionals’ (mis)understanding of epigenetic influences on human development

open access: yesTeaching & Learning Inquiry: The ISSOTL Journal, 2020
Mental health researchers emphasize the importance of practitioner understanding of biology-environment interplay. Accordingly, our goal of the study described in this article was to understand students’ preconceptions and misconceptions about biological
