Imaging fingerprint can map critical cell changes several days sooner than current method

A new, still experimental, technique known as in vitro gametogenesis is poised to usher in the next era in reproductive and regenerative medicine.

researchers found that giving females a typical American, or Western, diet appeared to set the next generation up for lifelong obesity issues

Plant scientists discover a new epigenetic mechanism that contributes to plants' decision to flower

The upshot of the study is another indictment of the so-called Western diet 

Researchers describe how an epigenetic protein complex acts as a link between the environment and the genome to promoting the onset of aging in plants

FACT, a highly sought target of cancer drugs, is involved in many cellular processes including gene regulation and cancer development, but the mechanism of its action remained a mystery

In a recent study, cell lines exposed to increasingly higher levels of BBP showed higher levels of adipogenesis—the process by which fat cells develop

Researchers find that epigenetic changes dysregulate memory-associated genes

Findings shed light on role of a new kind of epigenetic signaling in evolution, could yield clues for understanding birth defects, regeneration
