An important strength of the book is the recognition and acknowledgement that an understanding of key epigenetic principles has come from studying model organisms. Compilation of information ...

Researchers unveil how biological sex influences brain aging, revealing genetic, hormonal, and molecular mechanisms behind ...

I think we are learning more and more, not only about the impact of epigenetics but also how to best model, analyze and interpret these data. Epigenetic mechanisms are a natural part of development ...

May 9, 2024 — A recent study led to the development of a powerful epigenetic editing technology. The system unlocks the ability to precisely program chromatin modifications at any specific ...

To overcome this problem, they have developed a new epigenetic clock model that provides more accurate measurements. 'Epigenetic age' of breast cancer patients Quintela heads the CNIO's Breast ...

Biological age refers to how old a person’s body is biologically, which may differ from their actual age in years.

The closer we look at the genome, the more we appreciate the role of small RNAs in what we call epigenetic inheritance. That's when traits get passed down without altering our basic DNA sequence.
