A new study suggests epigenetic changes at Type 1 diabetes susceptibility genes may explain the risk profile of children born ...

(THE CONVERSATION) A newly discovered biological signal in the blood could help health care teams and researchers better ...

Epigenetics, the study of changes in gene function that do not involve alterations to the DNA sequence, plays a pivotal role in understanding the complex interplay between genetics and the environment ...

Recent research highlights a newly discovered biological signal related to epigenetic modifications in the blood, particularly DNA methylation, which might improve understanding of children's ...

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh discovered a promising new biomarker of "complicated" mild- to severe-pediatric traumatic brain injury, or TBI.

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 ...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) continues to be one of the most prevalent and complex metabolic diseases globally, affecting ...

Salk researchers uncovered a genetic mechanism that directs DNA methylation in Arabidopsis. Instead of relying solely on existing epigenetic marks, CLASSY3 partners with REM transcription factors that ...

The biomedical literature provides many examples when medical conditions that were classically viewed as a paradigm for genetic inheritance appear to be shaped by additional factors, which cannot be ...
