DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that has consistently been shown to be linked
with a variety of human traits and diseases. Because DNA methylation is dynamic and …

Parental environmental experiences affect disease susceptibility in the progeny through
epigenetic inheritance. Pesticides are substances or mixtures of chemicals—some of which …

Methylation of CG dinucleotides (mCGs), which regulates eukaryotic genome functions, is
epigenetically propagated by Dnmt1/MET1 methyltransferases. How mCG is established …

The novel brominated flame retardant decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) has become a
ubiquitous emerging pollutant in the environment, which may evoke imperceptible effects in …

This review explores the emerging role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in modulating epigenetic
mechanisms involved in neurodegenerative diseases. Accumulating evidence has begun to …

Today, it is possible to investigate the biological paths and mechanisms that link mental life
to biological life. Emotions, feelings, desires, and cognitions influence biological systems. In …

Historical and demographical human cohorts of populations exposed to famine, as well as
animal studies, revealed that exposure to food deprivation is associated to lasting health …

How life emerged from inanimate matter is one of the most intriguing questions posed to
modern science. Central to this research are experimental attempts to build systems capable …

Early-life adversities are associated with altered defensive responses. Here, we
demonstrate that the repeated cross-fostering (RCF) paradigm of early maternal separation …

An increasing body of data are revealing key roles of epigenetics in evolutionary processes.
The scope of this manuscript is to assemble in a coherent frame experimental evidence …
