Better living through chemistry: caloric restriction (CR) and CR mimetics alter genome function to promote increased health and lifespan

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
Caloric restriction (CR), defined as decreased nutrient intake without causing malnutrition, has been documented to increase both health and lifespan across numerous organisms, including humans.

Evolving Lessons on Metazoan Primordial Germ Cells in Diversity and Development

Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 92, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Germ cells are pivotal for the continuation of biological species. The metazoan germline develops from primordial germ cells (PGCs) that undergo multiple rounds of mitotic divisions. The PGCs are specified by either maternal inheritance of asymmetrically polarized cytoplasmic mRNAs/proteins (found in roundworms, flies, fishes, frogs, and fowl)

The Lokve Barite Deposit, Croatia: an Example of Early Diagenetic Sedimentary Ore Deposits

Geologia Croatica, 2010
Syngenesis versus epigenesis in the Kupferschiefer genetic model is still a matter of controversy. The title of the article seems to be a paraphrase of a well-known paper by WEDEPOHL (1971), “Kupferschiefer as a prototype of syngenetic sedimentary ...

An Anaerobic Microbial Community Mediates Epigenetic Native Sulfur and Carbonate Formation During Replacement of Messinian Gypsum at Monte Palco, Sicily

Geobiology, Volume 23, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
ABSTRACT The microbially mediated replacement of sulfate‐bearing evaporites by authigenic carbonate and native sulfur under anoxic conditions is poorly understood. Sulfur‐bearing carbonates from the Monte Palco ridge (Sicily) replacing Messinian gypsum were therefore studied to better characterize the involved microorganisms.

Effects of valproic acid on wound healing of the abdominal wall musculoaponeurotic layer: an experimental study in rats

Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões
Introduction: valproic acid (VPA), an epigenetic drug, has potential for the treatment of neoplasms. Its effects on the healing of the peritoneal-musculo-aponeurotic plane (PMA) of the abdominal wall are studied.
