A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 3, on March 12, 2025, titled "DNA methylation entropy is a biomarker for aging." ...

The basic pattern of genomic DNA methylation is established at the time of embryo implantation through a wave of de novo methylation, but CpG islands are protected through a mechanism that ...

DNA methylation is a key factor in the regulation of organismal development and tissue homeostasis. DNA methylation marks indicate how to regulate ...

This study provides valuable findings on the role of site-specific DNA methylation changes during spermatogenesis and their contribution to paternal epigenetic inheritance. The study proposes that ...

Not all genes are active at all times. DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms that cells use to control gene expression. This straightforward experiment demonstrated that it was ...

The process known as "de novo" is time-consuming ... by employing naturally occurring methylation, the process that is part ...

DNA methylation is a fundamental epigenetic mechanism in which a methyl group is added onto a nucleotide, commonly cytosine. DNA methylation affects many biological processes, including gene ...
