The allure of the epigenome [PDF]
The Oxford English Dictionary dates the word 'genome' to 1926 but has not yet seen fit to include the term 'epigenome' in its illustrious pages (where it would reside handsomely between 'epigenist' and 'epigenous'). This differential treatment reflects a state of affairs in which the epigenome has yet to infiltrate the popular imagination, but belies ...

During aging, the mechanisms that normally maintain health and stress resistance strikingly decline, resulting in decrepitude, frailty, and ultimately death. Exactly when and how this decline occurs is unknown. Changes in transcriptional networks and chromatin state lie at the heart of age-dependent decline.

While cutaneous melanoma is linked to UV radiation, acral melanoma is not. Epigenetic mechanisms function as sensors to exposures and determinants of cell identity.

What is a Gene? A Two Sided View [PDF]
The need to account for all currently available experimental observations concerning the gene nature, has reshaped the concept of gene turning it from the essentially mechanistic unit, predominant during the '70s, into a quite abstract open ...

The Epigenome in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
AbstractEmerging evidence suggests the growing importance of “nongenetic factors” in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic vascular disease. Indeed, the inherited genome determines only part of the risk profile as genomic approaches do not take into account additional layers of biological regulation by “epi”-genetic changes.

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 ...
