These experiments opened the door for investigators to better understand exactly how methylation impacts gene expression and cellular differentiation. The roles and targets of DNA methylation vary ...

This fascinating demonstration has led to the proposal that changes in gene expression, rather than losses of genetic material, play a key role in guiding ... by levels of a hormone called ecdysone.

While humans share over 95% of their genome with chimpanzees, our brains are far more complex due to differences in gene expression.

Male hormones (androgens), as their name implies ... In addition, androgens regulate gene expression in tissues throughout ...

Professor Inga Neumann explores oxytocin's role in shaping social behavior, stress response, and psychiatric treatment.

can affect the accessibility of DNA to transcription factors and influence gene expression. In addition to protein-coding genes, the genome also contains non-coding RNA genes that play important roles ...
