The Relationship Between Scoliosis, Spinal Bone Density, and Truncal Muscle Strength in Familial Dysautonomia Patients 2023-11-29
This combined retrospective and prospective study aimed to investigate the relationship between scoliosis, spinal bone mineral density (BMD), and truncal muscle strength in patients with familial dysautonomia (FD). A total of 79 FD patients (40 male, 39 female) aged 5-44 years were included. The severity of scoliosis, lumbar spine BMD (Z-score), and truncal muscle strength […]
Validation of novel DNA methylation markers in cervical precancer and cancer 2023-08-22
We have recently identified, using a genome-wide approach, new methylation markers which were evaluated among various cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades and cervical cancer. We herein validate the methylated state of these genes in independent study populations, based on histology ascertained outcomes regardless of human papillomavirus status. CA10, DPP10, FMN2 and HAS1 (discovery set: 54 […]
A high-throughput test enables specific detection of hepatocellular carcinoma 2023-06-07
High-throughput tests for early cancer detection can revolutionize public health and reduce cancer morbidity and mortality. Here we show a DNA methylation signature for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) detection in liquid biopsies, distinct from normal tissues and blood profiles. We developed a classifier using four CpG sites, validated in TCGA HCC data. A single F12 gene […]
The role of DNA demethylation in liver to pancreas transdifferentiation 2022-09-16
CONCLUSIONS: Transdifferentiation is associated with global DNA hypomethylation, and with increased expression of specific demethylated genes. A combination of epigenetic modulators may be used to increase chromatin accessibility of the pancreatic transcription factors, thus promoting the efficiency of the developmental process.

Modulation of DNA methylation and protein expression in the prefrontal cortex by repeated administration of D-lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD): Impact on neurotropic, neurotrophic, and neuroplasticity signaling 2022-07-01
CONCLUSIONS: LSD affects DNA methylation, altering gene expression and protein expression related to neurotropic-, neurotrophic- and neuroplasticity signaling. This could represent a core mechanism mediating the effects of psychedelics.
Epigenetic signature of chronic low back pain in human T cells 2021-11-08
CONCLUSION: This study reveals sex-specific DNA methylation signatures in human T cells that discriminates chronic LBP participants from healthy controls.
Are the Healthy Vulnerable? Cytomegalovirus Seropositivity in Healthy Adults Is Associated With Accelerated Epigenetic Age and Immune Dysregulation 2021-07-13
CONCLUSIONS: Our novel findings distinguish altered immunity in the elderly based on CMV status. Chronic CMV infection in healthy, older adults is associated with indicators of immune dysregulation, both of which correlate to differences in EpiAge.
Uncommon side effects of common drugs in patients with familial dysautonomia 2021-07-10
CONCLUSION: We provide evidence that suggests the use of several common drugs should be discontinued or reduced in FD patients.
Potential reversal of epigenetic age using a diet and lifestyle intervention: a pilot randomized clinical trial 2021-04-12
Manipulations to slow biological aging and extend healthspan are of interest given the societal and healthcare costs of our aging population. Herein we report on a randomized controlled clinical trial conducted among 43 healthy adult males between the ages of 50-72. The 8-week treatment program included diet, sleep, exercise and relaxation guidance, and supplemental probiotics […]
S-adenosylmethionine in combination with decitabine shows enhanced anti-cancer effects in repressing breast cancer growth and metastasis 2020-07-29
Abnormal DNA methylation orchestrates many of the cancer-related gene expression irregularities such as the inactivation of tumour suppressor genes through hypermethylation as well as activation of prometastatic genes through hypomethylation. The fact that DNA methylation abnormalities can be chemically reversed positions the DNA methylation machinery as an attractive target for anti-cancer drug development. However, although […]
An enhanced chemopreventive effect of methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine in combination with 25-hydroxyvitamin D in blocking mammary tumor growth and metastasis 2020-07-28
Therapeutic targeting of metastatic breast cancer still remains a challenge as the tumor cells are highly heterogenous and exploit multiple pathways for their growth and metastatic spread that cannot always be targeted by a single-agent monotherapy regimen. Therefore, a rational approach through simultaneous targeting of several pathways may provide a better anti-cancer therapeutic effect. We […]
DNA methylation signatures of Prostate Cancer in peripheral T-cells 2020-06-25
CONCLUSIONS: Results from the current study provide for the first-time a potential role of DNA methylation changes in peripheral T cells in PCa. This non-invasive methodology may allow for early intervention and stratification of patients into different prognostic groups to reduce PCa associated morbidity from repeat invasive prostate biopsies and design therapeutic strategy to reduce […]
Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling identifies two novel genes in cervical neoplasia 2020-01-27
DNA methylation analysis may improve risk stratification in cervical screening. We used a pan-epigenomic approach to identify new methylation markers along the continuum of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) to cervical cancer. Physician-collected samples (54 normal, 50 CIN1, 40 CIN2 and 42 CIN3) were randomly selected from women at a single-center colposcopy clinic. Extracted DNA was […]
