Epigenomics of macrophages [PDF]
SummaryMacrophages play essential roles in tissue homeostasis, pathogen elimination, and tissue repair. A defining characteristic of these cells is their ability to efficiently adapt to a variety of abruptly changing and complex environments. This ability is intrinsically linked to a capacity to quickly alter their transcriptome, and this is tightly ...

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a risk factor for lung cancer development. COPD induces activation of hypoxia-induced signaling, causing remodeling of surrounding microenvironmental cells also modulating the release and cargo of their ...

Genomics and epigenomics [PDF]
Migraine with (MA) and without aura (MO) is a common brain disorder that affects 15% of the general population. Genetic studies on twins have shown that MA and MO heritability spans between 50% and 60%[1]. Despite the high degree of heritability the genetic basis of MA and MO has not been elucidated and on the whole their etiology is far from being ...

RNA N6-methyladenosine methylation and skin diseases
Skin diseases are global health issues caused by multiple pathogenic factors, in which epigenetics plays an invaluable role. Post-transcriptional RNA modifications are important epigenetic mechanism that regulate gene expression at the genome-wide level.

Over the past decade, remarkable breakthroughs in our understanding of epigenetic biology have coincided with an increased public interest in the impact of diet and lifestyle choices on health. It is well established that a balanced diet enhances life expectancy and helps to prevent or treat certain diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, cancer, and ...

Single-cell sequencing shows cellular heterogeneity of cutaneous lesions in lupus erythematosus
Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) and systemic LE (SLE) can present as cutaneous lesions. Here the authors characterise an scRNA dataset of cutaneous lesions from these patients and compare these to healthy controls showing differential immune cell ...

Enhanced and controlled chromatin extraction from FFPE tissues and the application to ChIP-seq
Background Epigenetic dysregulation is involved in the etiology and progression of various human diseases. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples represent the gold standard for archiving pathology samples, and thus FFPE samples are a major ...
