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 ...

Accumulating evidence indicates that epigenetic modifiers have key roles in genome-wide reprogramming and activation and repression of specific genes during mammalian germ-cell development.

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.

Two biotech companies, Chroma Medicine and Nvelop Therapeutics, have merged to form nChroma Bio, a new company that combines epigenetic editing capabilities with in vivo delivery technologies.

This includes understanding the mechanisms by which EDCs cause ovarian aging, folliculogenesis, decrease of oocyte quality, ovulation disorders, development and receptivity of endometrium, ...

Epigenetic editing startup Chroma Medicine is merging with Nvelop Therapeutics in a deal that will also bring in $75 million in funding to develop in vivo genetic medicines, the two companies ...

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 ...

Now, epigenetics is changing the game. How a dwindling gang of veterans from the American War of Independence were captured in early photographic form. President-elect Donald Trump has called ...

Epigenetic marks are chemical modifications found throughout the genome – the DNA within cells. By influencing the activity of nearby genes, the marks govern developmental processes and help cells to ...
