The Effects of Epigenetics on Stress Response [PDF]
, 2016 Despite the vast amount of resources at the disposal of humanity today, the intricacies of human biology are often a mystery. The chemical and biological products of the human genome have been well studied and documented, but many of the chemical and ...

Genetics and epigenetics of IBD
Pharmacological Research, 2020 Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic intermittent inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract of unknown etiology but a clear genetic predisposition. Prompted by the first investigations on IBD families and twins, the genetic and epigenetic studies have produced an unprecedented amount of information in comparison with other immune ...

Developmental Systems Theory as a Process Theory [PDF]
, 2018 Griffiths and Russell D. Gray (1994, 1997, 2001) have argued that the fundamental unit of analysis in developmental systems theory should be a process – the life cycle – and not a set of developmental resources and interactions between those resources ...

Genetics and epigenetics of obesity
Maturitas, 2011 Obesity results from interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Despite a relatively high heritability of common, non-syndromic obesity (40-70%), the search for genetic variants contributing to susceptibility has been a challenging task. Genome wide association (GWA) studies have dramatically changed the pace of detection of common genetic
