For those who have not experienced drug addiction, it can be easy to view the disease as a choice—but research shows that epigenetics plays an important role.
Loss of DNA methylation at transposable elements in sperm is associated with decreased sperm function in the offspring.
Unlock the complexities of epigenomic data analysis with this comprehensive guide, from quality control to visualization.
Oncogenic viruses, viruses that drive cancer, use epigenetics to regulate their life cycles and these epigenetic processes can be disrupted in cancer.
Epigenetic editing may outperform gene therapy for complex diseases by controlling, not altering, the genetic code, expanding therapeutic possibilities.
Have you ever wondered why doctors recommend taking folate (also known as folic acid) during pregnancy? Turns out, it's a crucial supplement for the healthy development of growing babies, especially their central nervous system.
Maxime Galloy works on deciphering how the chromatin composition surrounding the DNA damage impact the repair.
