Epigenetic memory via concordant DNA methylation is inversely correlated to developmental potential of mammalian cells (2017)
Journal Article

In storing and transmitting epigenetic information, organisms must balance the need to maintain information about past conditions with the capacity to respond to information in their current and future environments. Some of this information is encode... Read More about Epigenetic memory via concordant DNA methylation is inversely correlated to developmental potential of mammalian cells.

Manganese exposure: linking down-regulation of miRNA-7 and miRNA-433 with ?-synuclein overexpression and risk of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (2017)
Journal Article

Manganese is an essential trace element however elevated environmental and occupational exposure to this element has been correlated with neurotoxicity symptoms clinically identical to idiopathic Parkinson's disease. In the present study we chronical... Read More about Manganese exposure: linking down-regulation of miRNA-7 and miRNA-433 with ?-synuclein overexpression and risk of idiopathic Parkinson's disease.

High-level dietary cadmium exposure is associated with global DNA hypermethylation in the gastropod hepatopancreas (2017)
Journal Article

5-methylcytosine (5mC) is a key epigenetic mark which influences gene expression and phenotype. In vertebrates, this epigenetic mark is sensitive to Cd exposure, but there is no information linking such an event with changes in global 5mC levels in t...
