Epigenetic therapies are offering a more targeted way to treat some lymphomas by changing how genes are turned on or off ...

Epigenetics, the dynamic regulation of genetic expression, involves complex molecular mechanisms. While the process of gene silencing by methylating the H3K27 position in histones is understood, not ...

New research in C. elegans from scientists at Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) helps explain how changes in the parents’ lysosomes that promote longevity are transferred to their offspring.

DNA and RNA epigenetics, once thought to be separate, have now been found to work together to fine-tune gene expression. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

A single-cell atlas of brain aging epigenetics has mapped methylation, chromatin, and gene activity changes across 36 cell types and 8 brain regions in mice, bringing new insights to aging and ...

Most of us know that our genes determine our traits—but that's only half the story. The field of epigenetics has reshaped how scientists think about gene regulation, revealing layers of control beyond ...

Epigenetic clocks provide a molecular framework for assessing biological ovarian age by integrating DNA methylation patterns with hallmarks of reproductive aging. While these clocks show moderate ...

Barça Innovation Hub and IDIBAPS have published a groundbreaking article that analyses, for the first time, the epigenome of footballers from both the men’s and women’s teams, exploring whether ...

Scientists may be one step closer to understanding why polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) tends to run in families. The new research, presented July 1 at the 41st Annual Meeting of the European Society ...

Assisted reproductive technologies (ART), such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), may affect the epigenetics of the placenta, slightly raising the risk of certain health impacts for babies. To date, ART ...
