RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 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)

Maternal obesity blunts antimicrobial responses in fetal monocytes
eLife, 2023 Maternal pre-pregnancy (pregravid) obesity is associated with adverse outcomes for both mother and offspring. Amongst the complications for the offspring is increased susceptibility and severity of neonatal infections necessitating admission to the ...

Human Molecular Genetics, 2002 Research in cancer epigenomics is driven by the development of novel technologies and the utilization of model organisms ranging from yeasts to plants to vertebrates. For decades, the search for cancer genes has focused on genetic defects that were used as tags for identification of these genes.

Epigenome-wide association study reveals decreased average methylation levels years before breast cancer diagnosis [PDF]
, 2015 Interest in the potential of DNA methylation in peripheral blood as a biomarker of cancer risk is increasing. We aimed to assess whether epigenome-wide DNA methylation measured in peripheral blood samples obtained before onset of the disease is ...

Stage-specific histone modification profiles reveal global transitions in the Xenopus embryonic epigenome. [PDF]
, 2011 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.

Epigenetic alterations in TRAMP mice: epigenome DNA methylation profiling using MeDIP-seq
Cell & Bioscience, 2018 Purpose We investigated the genomic DNA methylation profile of prostate cancer in transgenic adenocarcinoma of the mouse prostate (TRAMP) cancer model and to analyze the crosstalk among targeted genes and the related functional pathways. Methods Prostate

The importance of detailed epigenomic profiling of different cell types within organs. [PDF]
, 2016 The human body consists of hundreds of kinds of cells specified from a single genome overlaid with cell type-specific epigenetic information. Comprehensively profiling the body's distinct epigenetic landscapes will allow researchers to verify cell types ...

The epigenetic clock is correlated with physical and cognitive fitness in the Lothian Birth Cohort 1936 [PDF]
, 2015 Background: The DNA methylation-based 'epigenetic clock' correlates strongly with chronological age, but it is currently unclear what drives individual differences. We examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the epigenetic clock and

Mobile DNA, 2017 Background Intracisternal A particle (IAP) is one of the most transpositionally active retrotransposons in the mouse genome, but its expression varies between cell types. This variation is believed to arise from differences in the epigenetic state (e.g.,
