Epigenetics regulates gene expression and has been confirmed to play a critical role in a
variety of metabolic diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease …

Fibrosis is defined as an excessive deposition of connective tissue components and can
affect virtually every organ system, including the skin, lungs, liver and kidney. Fibrotic tissue …

CRISPR is becoming an indispensable tool in biological research. Once known as the
bacterial immune system against invading viruses, the programmable capacity of the Cas9 …

Over the past 20 years, breakthrough discoveries of chromatin-modifying enzymes and
associated mechanisms that alter chromatin in response to physiological or pathological …

Exceptionally long-lived species, including many bats, rarely show overt signs of aging,
making it difficult to determine why species differ in lifespan. Here, we use DNA methylation …

A major mechanism regulating the accessibility and function of eukaryotic genomes are the
covalent modifications to DNA and histone proteins that dependably package our genetic …

A number of very recently developed electrochemical biosensing strategies are promoting
electrochemical biosensing systems into practical point‐of‐care applications. The focus of …

Although DNA methylation is an important gene regulatory mechanism in mammals, its
function in arthropods remains poorly understood. Studies in eusocial insects have argued …

Epigenetics is a quickly growing field encompassing mechanisms regulating gene
expression that do not involve changes in the genotype. Epigenetics is of increasing …

Vascular endothelial cell (EC) function depends on appropriate organ-specific molecular
and cellular specializations. To explore genomic mechanisms that control this specialization …
