Understanding inflammatory responses: A small cut with a big impact

sciencedaily.com — “During inflammation, controlled gene expression is necessary in order to allow the organism to mount an effective defense response. For this process, the protein ARTD1 is removed from the DNA. Veterinary biochemists and molecular biologists have now elucidated this previously unclear mechanism: ARTD1 is cut into two pieces by molecular scissors, which enhances gene expression. The results are groundbreaking for our understanding of inflammatory responses and the development of new anti-inflammatView full resource at sciencedaily.com

Breakthrough discovery unveils master switches in colon cancer

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have identified a new mechanism by which colon cancer develops. By focusing on segments of DNA located between genes, or so-called “junk DNA,” the team has discovered a set of master switches, i.e., gene enhancer elements, that turn “on and off” key genes whose altered expression is defining for colon cancers.View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Clinical Epigenetics | Abstract | A macroepigenetic approach to identify factors responsible for the autism epidemic in the United States

clinicalepigeneticsjournal.com — “The number of children ages 6 to 21 in the United States receiving special education services under the autism disability category increased 91 % between 2005 to 2010 while the number of children receiving special education services overall declined by 5 %. The demand for special education services continues to rise in disability categories associated with pervasive developmental disorders. Neurodevelopment can be adversely impacted when gene expression is altered by dietary transcription factorView full resource at clinicalepigeneticsjournal.com

Social stress changes immune system gene expression in primates

sciencedaily.com — “The ranking of a monkey within her social environment and the stress accompanying that status dramatically alters the expression of nearly 1,000 genes, a new scientific study reports. The research is the first to demonstrate a link between social status and genetic regulation in primates on a genome-wide scale, revealing a strong, plastic link between social environment and biology.View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Genome Medicine | Abstract | Systems-level analysis of age-related macular degeneration reveals global biomarkers and phenotype-specific functional networks

genomemedicine.com — “Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness that affects the central region of the retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE), choroid, and neural retina. Initially characterized by an accumulation of sub-RPE deposits, AMD leads to progressive retinal degeneration, and in advanced cases, irreversible vision loss. Although genetic analysis, animal models, and cell culture systems have yielded important insights into AMD, the molecular pathways underlying AMD's onset and progresView full resource at genomemedicine.com
