In a recent study published in the journal Science Advances, researchers estimated the maximal longevity, gestation period, and sexual maturity age using deoxyribonucleic methylation (DNAm) by ...

DNA methylation is a key epigenome component that helps dictate how genes are expressed, contributing to normal cell and tissue differentiation during development, as well as the process of biological ...

The epigenetic modification, DNA methylation, is characterized by 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) and found in specific genomic locations, most notably regulatory regions such as promoters and enhancers.

DNA methylation is a widely studied epigenetic modification with crucial roles in gene regulation, development, and disease, particularly in cancer. It has immense potential as a biomarker for early ...

Researchers have developed the first comprehensive atlas of allele-specific DNA methylation across 39 human cell types, revealing a complex landscape of epigenetic regulation. The study identified ...

DNA and RNA methylation, initially thought to operate as distinct pathways, have been shown to interact closely, shifting our understanding of gene regulation. A team of researchers from the ...

PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On August 24, 2025, the 23rd International Congress of Nutrition (ICN) convened in Paris, France, under the theme "Sustainable Food for Global Health." As the premier platform ...
