To understand how our habits influence our genes —and more specifically, how what we eat activates genes that promote cell ...
By adopting the epigenetic diet, a type of nutrition that helps express genes that reduce inflammation, slow ageing and ...
Changes known as epigenetic modifications play an important role in cancer development, among other things. Being able to analyze them quickly and reliably could, for example, contribute significantly ...
For years, scientists have been fascinated with how DNA mutations impart phenotypic changes. However, epigeneticists including Andrew Pospisilik think mutations are responsible for only a portion of ...
As next-generation sequencing swept across much of biology, scientists collected enormous amounts of information on the strings of bases—adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine—that make up DNA, but ...
The authors investigated the epigenetic mechanisms regulating the differentiation of circulating monocytes that infiltrate the CNS and adopt microglia-like characteristics. The work is useful to the ...

A new way to measure the age of dolphins opens a window onto the lives of these iconic animals
In our new research, we linked DNA markers with known tooth ages of dead dolphins to build the first molecular "epigenetic clock" for common dolphins ( Delphinus delphis ). This allows scientists to ...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is a highly virulent virus. Evidence suggests that disruption of host ...
The earliest studies of genetic inheritance were very straightforward - Gregor Mendel documented the passage of certain easily observable traits as they passed down through generations of pea plants.
