Lamia Wahba is studying how information outside the genetic code can pass between generations and what that means for ...

Dr. Jennifer Amengual explains how epigenetic therapies treat lymphomas by changing gene expression rather than killing dividing cells like chemotherapy. Epigenetic therapies are offering a more ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee that each cell performs its role optimally. This is where DNA and RNA ...

Epigenetics is rewriting what we know about how our genes work, adapt, and sometimes fail. From chemical tags that switch genes on or off to RNA molecules that fine-tune expression, scientists are ...

Epigenetics refers to how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Unlike genetic changes or ...

We often hear the phrase, "You are what you eat." But what if it also applied to your children—even before they're born? Research from the Texas A&M University Health Science Center (Texas A&M Health) ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function. Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, ...

In 2018, when the study of potentially modifiable genetic markers for sleep apnea was emerging, a group of researchers from Mexico published a study titled, “Dad’s snoring may have left molecular ...

At first glimpse, C. elegans and people appear to have nothing in common. The nematode worm, whose full scientific name is Caenorhabditis elegans, measures about one millimeter in length, ...

Tally Health is under new ownership. The biotechnology platform, which performs epigenetic age testing for consumers and ...
