epigenetics

Using patient data from several banks of genomics data, researchers at UC San Diego were able to make similar predictions of aging using either mutations or epigenetic modifications. Their results reveal a common link between two separate but equally prominent theories of aging.

Genes involved in chromatin modification and gene transcription are associated with the progression of neurodevelopmental disorders. Researchers from Japan have developed a new mouse model to study the molecular mechanism behind the ability of KMT2C to cause autism spectrum disorder. They also showed that vafidemstat has a rescuing effect by normalizing disrupted gene expression.
