DNA tumor viruses including members of the polyomavirus, adenovirus, papillomavirus, and herpes virus families are presently the subject of intense interest with respect to the role that epigenetics plays in control of the virus life cycle and the transformation of a normal cell to a cancer cell.

Organisms with identical genome sequences can show substantial differences in their phenotypes owing to epigenetic changes that result in different use of their genes. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression plays a key role in the control of several fundamental processes in the biology of malaria parasites, including antigenic variation and sexual ...

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.

In higher organisms, all cells share the same genome, but every cell expresses only a limited and specific set of genes that defines the cell type. During cell division, not only the genome, but also the cell type is inherited by the daughter cells. This

RRx-001, an epigenetic-based radio- and chemosensitizer, has vascular normalizing effects on SCCVII and U87 tumors. [PDF]
BackgroundThe tumor-specific microregional effects of the anticancer agent RRx-001, a novel epigenetic-based radio/chemosensitizer with nitrogen oxide-donating properties in phase II clinical trials, were investigated with whole tissue section ...

The connection between DNA replication timing and changes that occur to the epigenome in cancer are still poorly understood. Here, the authors perform Repli-Seq and integrated epigenome analyses and find that genomic regions that undergo long-range ...

Systematic comparison of monoclonal versus polyclonal antibodies for mapping histone modifications by ChIP-seq. [PDF]
BackgroundThe robustness of ChIP-seq datasets is highly dependent upon the antibodies used. Currently, polyclonal antibodies are the standard despite several limitations: They are non-renewable, vary in performance between lots and need to be validated ...

The incidence of diabetes and related complications like nephropathy is growing rapidly and has become a major health care issue. Changes in the environment and nutritional habits have been implicated as major players. Furthermore, it is becoming increasingly clear that epigenetic factors may modulate the connections between genes and the environment ...

The Many Faces of EpigeneticsOxford, December 2017
The conference ‘The Many Faces of Epigenetics: Multidisciplinary Perspectives “over” Genetics’ was held in Oxford (6–8 December 2017) and offered a valuable window into the domain of Epigenetics and its promises.
