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

Cancer researchers have long treated genetic chaos and epigenetic rewiring as separate engines of disease, two parallel ...

Aggressive cancer growth and alterations in gene activity without changes in DNA sequence (epigenetics) are associated with mutant p53 proteins, according to new research from the Perelman School of ...

During the process of metastasis, tumor cells inevitably encounter the stimulation of various oxidative stressors, resulting in the fluctuation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels.

Epigenetics play a significant role in cancer onset and spread, and scientists explore epigenetic regulators for their roles in carcinogenesis. In this webinar brought to you by The Scientist, Özgen ...

Bottom Line: Researchers from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have identified, for the first time, an epigenetic mechanism promoting breast cancer. The team found that inhibition of the ...

This review is designed by Dr. Yinglan Zhao and written by her PhD students Dr. Lei Tao and Yue Zhou (Cancer Center and State Key Laboratory of Biotherapy, West China Hospital, Sichuan University).

Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...

As the human body is developing, cells have to differentiate and specialize into certain specific types of cells, so they can carry out the correct function where they are supposed to, whether they ...

As people live longer, the gut quietly accumulates damage that can tip the balance between healthy tissue renewal and chronic ...
