Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis
ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset

Transcription factor network dynamics during the commitment to oncogene-induced senescence
Aberrant oncogenic signaling causes cells to transition into oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) to limit uncontrolled proliferation. Despite being a potent tumor suppressor mechanism, OIS is an unstable cell state susceptible to reprogramming that can ...

Epigenomic regulation of heart failure: integrating histone marks, long noncoding RNAs, and chromatin architecture. [PDF]
Epigenetic processes are known to have powerful roles in organ development across biology. It has recently been found that some of the chromatin modulatory machinery essential for proper development plays a previously unappreciated role in the ...

Integration of epigenetics into ecotoxicology: insights and fundamental research needs
ABSTRACT Epigenetics refers to heritable changes in genome function that occur without direct alterations to the DNA sequence. A multitude of environmental contaminants can influence the epigenetic marks of a genome. Changes of epigenetic marks including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non‐coding RNAs can induce alterations at the gene ...

From Genomic and Epigenomic Maps to Medicines in Adult T‐Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma
ABSTRACT Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive and refractory hematologic malignancy that is caused by human T‐cell leukemia virus type‐1 (HTLV‐1) retrovirus. ATL results from a combination of viral latency and the accumulation of abnormalities throughout the genome, epigenome, transcriptome, and signaling pathways.

Re-searching nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has been a focus of medical research for more than 100 years, with significant interest emerging over the last 58 years following the identification of the link between the disease and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection ...

Evolutionary Analysis of Transcriptional Regulation Mediated by Cdx2 in Rodents
Our study (1) represented a first systematic analysis of species‐specific adaptation in the DNA binding pattern of transcription factor; (2) represented a first study of cis‐regulation between two reproductively isolated species by using a novel allodiploid system; (3) demonstrated a higher conservation of transcriptional output than that of DNA ...
