Cell, 2012 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.

Single-cell sequencing shows cellular heterogeneity of cutaneous lesions in lupus erythematosus
Nature 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 ...

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 ...

Epigenomes in Cardiovascular Disease. [PDF]
, 2018 If unifying principles could be revealed for how the same genome encodes different eukaryotic cells and for how genetic variability and environmental input are integrated to impact cardiovascular health, grand challenges in basic cell biology and ...

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

Regenerating the epigenome [PDF]
EMBO reports, 2011 The ability of some organisms to regenerate parts of their body has fascinated scientists for decades. The process of regeneration depends on the potential of certain cells to proliferate and contribute to the formation of new tissue. Organisms have evolved two strategies by which to achieve this: the maintenance of adult stem cells and the induction ...
