Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have found a pattern of so-called epigenetic "marks" in a transition state between normal and pancreatic cancer cells in mice, and that the normal cells may ...

Season 10 of The Rhonda Swan Show continues to deliver powerhouse voices and transformative conversations. In this episode, Rhonda welcomes Lisa Thomas, renowned epigenetics expert, TEDx speaker, and ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics—meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

Scientists say they have found a pattern of so-called epigenetic 'marks' in a transition state between normal and pancreatic cancer cells in mice, and that the normal cells may keep at least a ...

Epigenetics plays a critical role in human health by regulating gene expression without the direct modification of DNA sequence. Aberrant epigenetic modifications mediated by changes in DNA and ...

Researchers have discovered that a DNA modification called 5-formylcytosine (5fC) functions as an activating epigenetic switch that kick-starts genes in early embryonic development. This finding ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Epigenetics refer to DNA modifications that may affect phenotype but don’t alter the nucleotide sequence itself. Epigenetic changes can often be passed down generations, hence the Greek prefix “epi”, ...

In 2018, when the study of potentially modifiable genetic markers for sleep apnea was emerging, a group of researchers from Mexico published a study titled, “Dad’s snoring may have left molecular ...

Why do identical twins sometimes experience different health outcomes as they age? How is it that a pregnant woman’s nutrition can influence her unborn child’s future risk of developing certain ...

Recent research suggests that epigenetic markers in the blood could be useful for understanding dementia risk. Two linked papers from the University of Exeter and Maastricht University have together ...

While hoarding behavior has traditionally been understood through psychological and environmental lenses, recent research suggests that epigenetics may play a significant role in the development and ...
