Regeneration of Zebrafish CNS: Adult Neurogenesis by Sukla Ghosh, Subhra Prakash Hui

“…We intend to discuss our current understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanism(s) that allows formation of proliferating progenitors and controls neurogenesis, which involve changes in epigenetic and transcription programs. Unlike mammals, zebrafish retains radial glia, a nonneuronal cell type in their adult central nervous system. …”

A biallelically active embryonic enhancer dictates GNAS imprinting through allele-specific conformations by Yorihiro Iwasaki, Monica Reyes, Harald Jüppner, Murat Bastepe

“…Abstract Genomic imprinting controls parental allele-specific gene expression via epigenetic mechanisms. Abnormal imprinting at the GNAS gene causes multiple phenotypes, including pseudohypoparathyroidism type-1B (PHP1B), a disorder of multihormone resistance. …”

A Review of Fish Anomalies in Türkiye’s Waters by İsmail Reis, Sercan Yapıcı, Hasan Cerim, Özgen Yılmaz

“…According to the literature, possible factors causing anomalies can be discussed under four general headings; environmental (anthropogenic factors, industrial activities, industrial chemicals, trace elements, pollution, light intensity, pesticide usage), biological (endocrine system, genetic, teratological cases, epigenetic, nutritional problems, parasitic or physiologic reasons, oxidative stress, pigment deficiency), ecological (attacked by carnivores, competition, changes in water parameters), and fishery-related (ghost fishing). …”

Perspectives of Integrative Cancer Genomics in Next Generation Sequencing Era by So Mee Kwon, Hyunwoo Cho, Ji Hye Choi, Byul A Jee, Yuna Jo, Hyun Goo Woo

“…The explosive development of genomics technologies including microarrays and next generation sequencing (NGS) has provided comprehensive maps of cancer genomes, including the expression of mRNAs and microRNAs, DNA copy numbers, sequence variations, and epigenetic changes. These genome-wide profiles of the genetic aberrations could reveal the candidates for diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers as well as mechanistic insights into tumor development and progression. …”

Interspecific incompatibility in wide hybridization of plants and ways to overcome by L. A. Pershina, N. V. Trubacheeva

“…Postzygotic incompatibility may be associated with a highly pronounced genetic and epigenetic variability induced by wide crossings. Early stages of the postzygotic period are crucial for developing hybrid seeds due to embryo’s death, including those associated with uniparental chromosome elimination in hybrid cells and abnormal development of the endosperm. …”

Susceptibility to Aneuploidy in Young Mothers of Down Syndrome Children by Lucia Migliore, Francesca Migheli, Fabio Coppedè

“…Multiple risk factors are likely involved in chromosome nondisjunction; they act at different times in the meiotic process and can be of genetic or environmental (epigenetic) origin. We also discuss the increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) later in life that was observed in women who had a DS child at a young age. …”

Circulating LncRNA Is Potentially Up-regulated in Coronary Artery Disease by Niloofar Avazpour, Mohammadreza Hajjari, Saeed Yazdankhah, Azita Sahni, Ali Mohammad Foroughmand

“…Recent studies have revealed that aberrantly regulated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) as one of the main classes of cellular transcript plays a key regulatory role in transcriptional and epigenetic pathways. Recent reports have demonstrated that circulating lncRNAs in the blood can be potential biomarkers for CAD. …”

The role of KLF4 in human primordial germ cell development by Sun-Min Lee, Merrick Pierson Smela, M. Azim Surani

“…Cut-and-run and transcriptomic analyses reveal that KLF4 represses somatic markers involved in neuronal and endodermal differentiation while promoting the expression of genes associated with PGC specification, such as PAX5, and epigenetic regulators, including DNMT3L and REST. KLF4 targets in hPGCLCs showed significant co-enrichment of motifs for SP and STAT factors, which are known to regulate cell cycle and migration genes. …”

Microfacies and Reservoir Space Characteristics of Carbonate Reservoir of the Ordovician Yingshan Formation in Northern Slope of Tazhong Uplift, Tarim Basin by Ping Ren

“…The low-energy microfacies associations mostly appear as original strata or interlayer, but after the superposition of structural cracks, buried karsts, or epigenetic karsts, low-energy microfacies associations may form relatively small-scale fractured and fracture-dissolution pore types of reservoirs in this area.…”

Emerging Role of Histone Acetyltransferase in Stem Cells and Cancer by Daniela Trisciuoglio, Marta Di Martile, Donatella Del Bufalo

“…In this context, different hematological and solid tumors are characterized by deregulation of the protein acetylation pattern as a result of genetic or epigenetic changes. The imbalance between acetylation and deacetylation of histone or nonhistone proteins is also involved in the modulation of the self-renewal and differentiation ability of stem cells, including cancer stem cells. …”
