DNA methylation of the Tacr2 gene in a CUMS model of depression. Published: June, 2019 Abstract:
Tacr2, the gene encoding the NK2 receptor, belongs to G protein-coupled receptors. Accumulating evidence has indicated that the tachykinin receptors may contribute to the pathophysiology of depression. During the last decade, some studies have sho... Read more »
Sensitive tumour detection and classification using plasma cell-free DNA methylomes. Published: November, 2018 Abstract:
The use of liquid biopsies for cancer detection and management is rapidly gaining prominence. Current methods for the detection of circulating tumour DNA involve sequencing somatic mutations using cell-free DNA, but the sensitivity of these method... Read more »
Molecular Signatures of Regression of the Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumor. Published: April, 2018 Abstract:
The canine transmissible venereal tumor (CTVT) is a clonally transmissible cancer that regresses spontaneously or after treatment with vincristine, but we know little about the regression mechanisms. We performed global transcriptional, methylatio... Read more »
Genome-wide analysis of day/night DNA methylation differences in Populus nigra. Published: January, 2018 Abstract:
DNA methylation is an important mechanism of epigenetic modification. Methylation changes during stress responses and developmental processes have been well studied; however, their role in plant adaptation to the day/night cycle is poorly understo... Read more »
Data on novel DNA methylation changes induced by valproic acid in human hepatocytes Published: November, 2017 Abstract:
Valproic acid (VPA) is a widely prescribed antiepileptic drug in the world. Despite its pharmacological importance, it may cause liver toxicity and steatosis. However the exact mechanism of the steatosis formation is unknown. The data presented in... Read more »
Dynamics of DNA methylomes underlie oyster development Published: June, 2017 Abstract:
DNA methylation is a critical epigenetic regulator of development in mammals and social insects, but its significance in development outside these groups is not understood. Here we investigated the genome-wide dynamics of DNA methylation in a moll... Read more »
Overexpression of LINE-1 Retrotransposons in Autism Brain Published: February, 2017 Abstract:
Long interspersed nuclear elements-1 (LINE-1 or L1) are mobile DNA sequences that are capable of duplication and insertion (retrotransposition) within the genome. Recently, retrotransposition of L1 was shown to occur within human brain leading to ... Read more »
Trichloroethylene-Induced DNA Methylation Changes in Male F344 Rat Liver Published: September, 2016 Abstract:
Trichloroethylene (TCE), a common environmental contaminant, causes hepatocellular carcinoma in mice but not in rats. To understand the mechanisms of the species-specific hepatocarcinogenecity of TCE, we examined the methylation status of DNA in t... Read more »
The Dynamics of DNA Methylation in Maize Roots under Pb Stress. Published: December, 2014 Abstract:
Plants adapt to adverse conditions through a series of physiological, cellular, and molecular processes, culminating in stress tolerance. However, little is known about the associated regulatory mechanisms at the epigenetic level in maize under le... Read more »
Genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation patterns in horse Published: July, 2014 Abstract:
Background DNA methylation is an epigenetic regulatory mechanism that plays an essential role in mediating biological processes and determining phenotypic plasticity in organisms. Although the horse reference genome and whole transcriptome data a... Read more »
Differential methylation of the TRPA1 promoter in pain sensitivity. Published: January, 2014 Abstract:
Chronic pain is a global public health problem, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Here we examine genome-wide DNA methylation, first in 50 identical twins discordant for heat pain sensitivity and then in 50 further ... Read more »
DNA unmethylome profiling by covalent capture of CpG sites. Published: July, 2013 Abstract:
Dynamic patterns of cytosine-5 methylation and successive hydroxylation are part of epigenetic regulation in eukaryotes, including humans, which contributes to normal phenotypic variation and disease risk. Here we present an approach for the mappi... Read more »
Constitutional trisomy 8 mosaicism as a model for epigenetic studies of aneuploidy. Published: July, 2013 Abstract:
BACKGROUND: To investigate epigenetic patterns associated with aneuploidy we used constitutional trisomy 8 mosaicism (CT8M) as a model, enabling analyses of single cell clones, harboring either trisomy or disomy 8, from the same patient; this circ... Read more »
Methylome analysis using MeDIP-seq with low DNA concentrations. Published: March, 2012 Abstract:
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that has a crucial role in many biological processes. To understand the functional consequences of DNA methylation on phenotypic plasticity, a genome-wide analysis should be embraced. This in turn requires a t... Read more »
Gene expression and epigenetic changes by furan in rat liver. Published: November, 2011 Abstract:
