Epigenetic reprogramming holds promise for reversing aging, addressing cellular aging mechanisms and paving the way for innovative therapeutic strategies.

The behavior of a person's genes doesn't just depend on the genes' DNA sequence - it's also affected by so-called epigenetic factors. Changes in these factors can play a critical role in disease.

Evidence is mounting that epigenetic marks on DNA can influence future generations in a variety of ways. But how such phenomena might affect large-scale evolutionary processes is hotly debated. After ...

The behavior of a person's genes doesn't just depend on the genes' DNA sequence - it's also affected by so-called epigenetic factors. Changes in these factors can play a critical role in disease.

An international research team led by Helmholtz Munich has, for the first time, provided a detailed insight into how the spatial organization of genetic material is established in the cell nucleus of ...

Epigenetic changes alter the way genes are expressed throughout an organism’s life. These tweaks are then wiped from the genomes of reproductive cells, giving offspring a clean start—or so it seemed.

Pancreatic cells 'remember' epigenetic precancerous marks without genetic sequence mutations Date: April 4, 2025 Source: Johns Hopkins Medicine Summary: Scientists say they have found a pattern of ...

In contrast, epigenetic variation does not change the words themselves. Instead, it is more like highlighting specific words or adding a bookmark in the chapter.

They found epigenetic marks, but no mutations (alterations in the DNA sequence itself), on genes linked with pancreatic cancer, including two groups called PI3K and R/R/C GTPase.
