Bridging maternal effects and epitranscriptomics: A novel perspective in developmental biology
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Maternal effects, encompassing both genetic (maternally expressed gene products) and non‐genetic (maternal state) influences, are powerful determinants of offspring phenotype, yet their RNA‐level mechanisms remain incompletely resolved. In parallel, epitranscriptomics, an emerging field centered on chemical modifications to RNA, has revealed ...

Beyond Tobacco Prevention: The Effects of Tobacco 21 Laws on Young Adults' Body Weight
Health Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Tobacco 21 (T21) laws effectively reduce youth tobacco use by preventing initiation. This study examines their impact on body weight among young adults aged 18–20. Using 2009–2019 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data and a two‐way fixed‐effects difference‐in‐differences (DID) design, we find limited evidence of broad weight changes ...

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children. The etiologies of pediatric cancer are largely unknown, but environmental pesticide exposures are likely to contribute. Chronic low‐dose exposure to pesticide mixtures through drinking water is a growing concern in agricultural communities.
