In this Teach Me in 10, Dr Ben Greulich, Assistant Professor of Biology at Mercer University, clarifies how epigenetic ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers assessed DNA methylation at 800,000 sites in the genome in blood samples collected from 900 people. The study includes extensive clinical information on participants, who all provided ...

Discover how emerging epigenetic clock models are reshaping our understanding of ovarian aging and revealing both the promise and current limits of predicting fertility outcomes through biological age ...

A single exposure to a toxic fungicide during pregnancy can increase epigenetic disease risk for 20 subsequent generations.

Scientists have mapped how genetics and life experiences leave lasting epigenetic marks on immune cells. The discovery helps explain why people respond so differently to the same infections and could ...

One toxic exposure during pregnancy may affect health for up to 20 generations and could help explain rising chronic disease ...

A new study suggests that an AI-assisted blood test, which measures for biomarkers, could help to identify prediabetes risk earlier.
