Embryo culture in presence of oviductal fluid induces DNA methylation changes in bovine blastocysts [PDF]

, 2017
During the transit through the oviduct, the early embryo initiates an extensive DNA methylation reprogramming of its genome. Given that these epigenetic modifications are susceptible to environmental factors, components present in the oviductal milieu ...

Impact of Atrial Fibrillation Type on Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis: A Single-Center Analysis [PDF]

Texas Heart Institute Journal
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a recognized risk factor for mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis, but the impact of different types of AF on clinical outcomes remains unclear.

Epigenomic Diversity of Colorectal Cancer Indicated by LINE-1 Methylation in a Database of 869 Tumors [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Genome-wide DNA hypomethylation plays a role in genomic instability and carcinogenesis. LINE-1 (L1 retrotransposon) constitutes a substantial portion of the human genome, and LINE-1 methylation correlates with global DNA methylation status ...

LINE-1 methylation status in prostate cancer and non-neoplastic tissue adjacent to tumor in association with mortality

Epigenetics, 2017
Aberrant DNA methylation seems to be associated with prostate cancer behavior. We investigated LINE-1 methylation in prostate cancer and non-neoplastic tissue adjacent to tumor (NTAT) in association with mortality from prostate cancer.

LINE-1 and Alu retrotransposition exhibit clonal variation [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: The non-long terminal repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposons, long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1) and Alu are currently active retroelements in humans.

DNA methylation and socioeconomic status in a Mexican-American birth cohort. [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Maternal social environmental stressors during pregnancy are associated with adverse birth and child developmental outcomes, and epigenetics has been proposed as a possible mechanism for such relationships.

Improvement of slope soil consolidation capacity of plant root system based on regulation of root architecture

Rock and Soil Mechanics, 2021
The effect of plant slope protection is strongly associated with the root architecture in soil. In this paper, the water?fertilizer combination method was used to regulate the plant root configuration, and the influence of the regulated plant root ...

Biomechanical study of the effect of traction on elbow joint capsule contracture

Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2023
Dynamic orthoses have a significant effect on the treatment of elbow capsular contracture. Because of the lack of quantitative research on traction forces, determining the appropriate traction force to help stretch soft tissues and maintain the joint's ...
