In this exclusive video interview, pharmaphorum’s editor-in-chief Jonah Comstock sits down with Carlos Buesa, CEO of Oryzon ...

The team of Professor Christof Niehrs at the Institute of Molecular Biology (IMB) in Mainz, Germany, has discovered that a DNA modification called 5-formylcytosine (5fC) functions as an activating ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function. Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, ...

Epigenetics is the science of how your lifestyle, environment, and even emotions can alter your gene activity without ...

Scientists have uncovered a gut-specific epigenetic aging mechanism that links inflammation and iron imbalance to cancer risk ...

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 ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act ...

Molecular mechanism uncovered in mice by UC Santa Cruz researchers reveals how a father’s diet, stress, and other ...

Nutritional epigenetics examines how maternal diet influences fetal gene expression through mechanisms such as DNA methylation, thereby shaping lifelong risks of metabolic, neurodevelopmental, and ...

Maternal prenatal stress related to natural and human-made disasters can lead to epigenetic modifications in offspring, ...

Researchers have unveiled a way to flip genes back on without slicing into the genome, a shift that could make CRISPR far ...
