Enhanced JBrowse plugins for epigenomics data visualization

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2018
Background New sequencing techniques require new visualization strategies, as is the case for epigenomics data such as DNA base modifications, small non-coding RNAs, and histone modifications.

Epigenomics of macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, 2014
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 ...

Extracellular vesicles from subjects with COPD modulate cancer initiating cells phenotype through HIF-1α shuttling

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
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]

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2015
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 ...

An automated high throughput solution for DNA extraction and bisulfite-conversion from high volume liquid biopsy specimens: sample preparation for epigenetic analysis

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2019
Objective DNA methylation analysis via real-time PCR or other analytical techniques requires purified bisulfite converted DNA. We report on an automated high throughput solution for DNA extraction, bisulfite-conversion, and purification of 96 samples ...

RNA N6-methyladenosine methylation and skin diseases

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2023
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.

Diet and the epigenome [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
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

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
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 ...

Epigenomics Scientific Big Data Workflow Scheduling for Cancer Diagnosis in Health Care Using Heterogeneous Computing Environment

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2022
DNA methylation and Histone are the main constituents to oversee the stable maintenance of cellular phenotypes. Any abnormalities in these components could cause cancer development and, therefore, must be potentially diagnostic.

Enhanced and controlled chromatin extraction from FFPE tissues and the application to ChIP-seq

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
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 ...
