Clinical Impact of MGMT Promoter Methylation in IDH-Mutant Gliomas: Influence of Threshold Selection and Clinical Confounding. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The clinical relevance of MGMT promoter methylation in IDH‐mutant gliomas remains controversial in the era of molecular classification. We aimed to systematically evaluate its clinical relevance by integrating quantitative assessment, cutoff exploration, and adjustment for clinical confounding.

Arginine methylation as a regulatory ratchet in cancer: From substrate selection to malignant-state stabilization. [PDF]
Arginine methylation can be viewed as a persistence‐prone post‐translational modification regulated by a network of PRMTs. Competitive and compensatory interactions among PRMTs can redistribute methylation across substrate pools shaped by sequence, structural, spatial, and environmental layers, reinforcing RNA‐processing, chromatin, and signaling ...

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

DNA methylation in follicular lymphoma [PDF]
PhDFollicular Lymphoma (FL) is a common B cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma with a median survival of 8-10 years. Patients frequently undergo transformation to a more aggressive lymphoma and this is associated with drastically reduced survival.

Computational analysis of CpG site DNA methylation [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Epigenetics is the study of factors that can change DNA and passed to next generation without change to DNA sequence.

From trans-methylation to cytosine methylation: Evolution of the methylation hypothesis of schizophrenia [PDF]
The role of methylation in the history of psychiatry has traversed a storied path. The original trans-methylation hypothesis was proposed at a time when chlorpromazine had been synthesized but not yet marketed as an antipsychotic (Thorazine).

Differential methylation pattern in pubertal girls associated with biochemical premature adrenarche
Biochemical premature adrenarche is defined by elevated serum DHEAS [≥40 μg/dL] before age 8 y in girls. This condition is receiving more attention due to its association with obesity, hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidemia, and polycystic ovary syndrome ...
