The Epigenomics of Cancer [PDF]
Aberrant gene function and altered patterns of gene expression are key features of cancer. Growing evidence shows that acquired epigenetic abnormalities participate with genetic alterations to cause this dysregulation. Here, we review recent advances in understanding how epigenetic alterations participate in the earliest stages of neoplasia, including ...

The eukaryotic genome is packaged into a highly ordered chromatin structure, with specific domains regulating the transcription patterns of local genes. Hathaway et al. now present a breakthrough technique in the artificial induction of chromatin marks and use this experimental model to test the properties of an induced heterochromatic domain.

Exercise epigenetics and the foetal origins of disease [PDF]
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).

Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force established the TASK3 working groups to create common data elements (CDEs) for various preclinical epilepsy research disciplines. The aim of the CDEs is to improve the standardization of experimental designs across a range of epilepsy ...

Stage-specific histone modification profiles reveal global transitions in the Xenopus embryonic epigenome. [PDF]
Vertebrate embryos are derived from a transitory pool of pluripotent cells. By the process of embryonic induction, these precursor cells are assigned to specific fates and differentiation programs.

RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

melRNA-seq for Expression Analysis of SINE RNAs and Other Medium-Length Non-Coding RNAs
Background Small interspersed elements (SINEs) are transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Pol III) to produce RNAs typically 100–500 nucleotides in length.
