The Emerging Role of Ten-Eleven Translocation 1 in Epigenetic Responses to Environmental Exposures. [PDF]
, 2020 Mounting evidence from epidemiological studies and animal models has linked exposures to environmental factors to changes in epigenetic markers, especially in DNA methylation.

DNA methylation and DNA methyltransferases [PDF]
, 2017 The prevailing views as to the form, function, and regulation of genomic methylation patterns have their origin many years in the past, at a time when the structure of the mammalian genome was only dimly perceived, when the number of protein-encoding ...

iScienceSummary: Abnormal epigenetics is the initial factor of the occurrence and development of osteoarthritis (OA), and abnormal mechanical load is a key pathogenic factor of OA. However, how abnormal mechanical load affects chondrocyte epigenetics is unclear.

Crossovers between epigenesis and epigenetics. A multicenter approach to the history of epigenetics (1901-1975) [PDF]
, 2014 The origin of epigenetics has been traditionally traced back to Conrad Hal Waddington's foundational work in 1940s. The aim of the present paper is to reveal a hidden history of epigenetics, by means of a multicenter approach.

Exercise epigenetics and the foetal origins of disease [PDF]
, 2014 Exercise epigenetics is a nascent area of research with vast health implications (e.g., from the treatment of obesity-related diseases to beneficially decoupling epigenetic and chronological age).

Environmental Epigenetics [PDF]
Environmental Epigenetics, 2015 With over 350 journals, Oxford University Press is one of the largest publishers of scientific journals. In considering their portfolio recently, they realized they had no specific journals in the rapidly growing area of epigenetics. When they approached me about helping to establish a journal in this area, I considered what other journals had been ...

Methylmercury Epigenetics [PDF]
Toxics, 2019 Methylmercury (MeHg) has conventionally been investigated for effects on nervous system development. As such, epigenetic modifications have become an attractive mechanistic target, and research on MeHg and epigenetics has rapidly expanded in the past decade.

Complete loss of H3K9 methylation dissolves mouse heterochromatin organization
Nature Communications, 2021 Histone H3K9 methylation (H3K9me) states define repressed chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Here the authors reveal complete loss of all H3K9me in mammalian cells through successive deletion of H3K9 methyltransferase genes that results in the dissolution of

What is a Gene? A Two Sided View [PDF]
, 2017 The need to account for all currently available experimental observations concerning the gene nature, has reshaped the concept of gene turning it from the essentially mechanistic unit, predominant during the '70s, into a quite abstract open ...
