Thermal imprinting modifies adult stress and innate immune responsiveness in the teleost sea bream [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The impact of thermal imprinting on the plasticity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-interrenal (HPI) axis and stress response in an adult ectotherm, the gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata, L.), during its development was assessed.

Retinoblastoma and its binding partner MSI1 control imprinting in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2008
Parental genomic imprinting causes preferential expression of one of the two parental alleles. In mammals, differential sex-dependent deposition of silencing DNA methylation marks during gametogenesis initiates a new cycle of imprinting. Parental genomic

Evolutionary lineage-specific genomic imprinting at the ZNF791 locus.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics
Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic process that results in parent-of-origin effects on mammalian development and growth. Research on genomic imprinting in domesticated animals has lagged due to a primary focus on orthologs of mouse and human imprinted ...

A comprehensive overview of genomic imprinting in breast and its deregulation in cancer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
In growth and development genomic imprinting is important in regulating gene expression. Here, the authors study loss of imprinting (LOI) in cancer, developing a mixture model to detect monoallelically expressed loci without genotyping data - applying ...

Genomic imprinting in human placentation

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2022
Background Genomic imprinting (GI) is a mammalian‐specific epigenetic phenomenon that has been implicated in the evolution of the placenta in mammals.

Maternal nutritional status, C1 metabolism and offspring DNA methylation: a review of current evidence in human subjects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
: Evidence is growing for the long-term effects of environmental factors during early-life on later disease susceptibility. It is believed that epigenetic mechanisms (changes in gene function not mediated by DNA sequence alteration), particularly DNA ...

Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers Reveals Cell-Type-Specific Paternal Growth Dominance

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
Genomic imprinting leads to preferred expression of either the maternal or paternal alleles of a subset of genes. Imprinting is essential for mammalian development, and its deregulation causes many diseases.

Profiling allele-specific gene expression in brains from individuals with autism spectrum disorder reveals preferential minor allele usage. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One fundamental but understudied mechanism of gene regulation in disease is allele-specific expression (ASE), the preferential expression of one allele.

Syndromic Disorders Caused by Disturbed Human Imprinting

open access: yesJCRPE, 2020
Imprinting disorders are a group of congenital diseases caused by dysregulation of genomic imprinting, affecting prenatal and postnatal growth, neurocognitive development, metabolism and cancer predisposition.

Birth seasonality studies in a large Prader-Willi syndrome cohort. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is generally due to sporadic paternal deletions of the chromosome 15q11-q13 region followed by maternal disomy 15. Advanced maternal age is more commonly seen in those with maternal disomy 15. Environmental factors (e.g., drug
