Childhood environment influences epigenetic age and methylation concordance of a CpG clock locus in British-Bangladeshi migrants (2022)
Journal Article
Stöger, R., Choi, M., Begum, K., Leeman, G., Emes, R. D., Melamed, P., & Bentley, G. R. (2023). Childhood environment influences epigenetic age and methylation concordance of a CpG clock locus in British-Bangladeshi migrants. Epigenetics, 18(1), Article 2153511. https://doi.org/10.1080/15592294.2022.2153511

Migration from one location to another often comes with a change in environmental conditions. Here, we analysed features of DNA methylation in young, adult British-Bangladeshi women who experienced different environments during their childhoods: a) m...

Thiamethoxam exposure deregulates short ORF gene expression in the honey bee and compromises immune response to bacteria (2021)
Journal Article
Decio, P., Ustaoglu, P., Derecka, K., Hardy, I. C. W., Roat, T. C., Malaspina, O., …Soller, M. (2021). Thiamethoxam exposure deregulates short ORF gene expression in the honey bee and compromises immune response to bacteria. Scientific Reports, 11(1), Article 1489. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-80620-7

© 2021, The Author(s). Maximizing crop yields relies on the use of agrochemicals to control insect pests. One of the most widely used classes of insecticides are neonicotinoids that interfere with signalling of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, but...

Unravelling the role of epigenetics in reproductive adaptations to early-life environment (2020)
Journal Article
Bar-Sadeh, B., Rudnizky, S., Pnueli, L., Bentley, G. R., Stöger, R., Kaplan, A., & Melamed, P. (2020). Unravelling the role of epigenetics in reproductive adaptations to early-life environment. Nature Reviews Endocrinology, 16, 519-533. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41574-020-0370-8

© 2020, Springer Nature Limited. Reproductive function adjusts in response to environmental conditions in order to optimize success. In humans, this plasticity includes age of pubertal onset, hormone levels and age at menopause. These reproductive ch...

Acute thiamethoxam toxicity in honeybees is not enhanced by common fungicide and herbicide and lacks stress-induced changes in mRNA splicing (2019)
Journal Article
Decio, P., Ustaoglu, P., Roat, T. C., Malaspina, O., Devaud, J.-M., Stöger, R., & Soller, M. (2019). Acute thiamethoxam toxicity in honeybees is not enhanced by common fungicide and herbicide and lacks stress-induced changes in mRNA splicing. Scientific Reports, 9(1), Article 19196. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-55534-8

Securing food supply for a growing population is a major challenge and heavily relies on the use of agrochemicals to maximize crop yield. It is increasingly recognized, that some neonicotinoid insecticides have a negative impact on non-target organis...
