Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Methylation Status of Imprinted Genes and Repetitive Elements in Sperm DNA from Infertile Males [PDF]

, 2011
Stochastic, environmentally and/or genetically induced disturbances in the genome-wide epigenetic reprogramming processes during male germ-cell development may contribute to male infertility.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Prmt1-mediated histone H4R3me2a methylation regulates the proliferation, migration and invasion of laryngeal cancer cells by affecting the expression level of NCOA5

Frontiers in Oncology
BackgroundLaryngeal cancer is a common head and neck cancer, and its occurrence and development are closely related to a variety of epigenetic modifications.

Complementarity between miRNA expression analysis and DNA methylation analysis in hrHPV-positive cervical scrapes for the detection of cervical disease

Epigenetics, 2019
Cervical screening by high-risk HPV (hrHPV) testing requires additional risk stratification (triage), as most infections are transient and only a subset of hrHPV-positive women harbours clinically relevant disease.

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Functional Analysis of DNA Methylation in Development and Disease [PDF]

, 2006
The genome of mammals harbors chemical modifications at some cytosine residues in the form of a methyl group. These modified residues, termed 5’-methylcytosines, have been discovered more than 50 years ago (Hotchkiss 1948) and have since been shown to ...

Exploring HLA-C methylation patterns and nutritional status in Kichwa mothers and infants from Tena, Ecuador

Frontiers in Medicine
Environment and lifestyle can affect the epigenome passed down from generation to generation. A mother’s nutrition can impact the methylation levels of her offspring’s epigenome, but it’s unclear which genes may be affected by malnutrition during ...

The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?
