DNA methylation differences between female and male X chromosomes in human brain
Background: DNA methylation is a key epigenetic mechanism of sex chromosome regulation. However, DNA methylation studies often exclude X chromosomes. Moreover, widely used DNA methylation assays interrogate biased subsets of CpGs, rather...

Whole-genome 5-hydroxymethylation profiling of human neurons for regulatory and biological insight
While 5-methylcytosine (5mC) DNA methylation is a well-known player in genome stability and transcriptional regulation, the role of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), particularly prevalent in neurons, remains largely unknown. Here, we used...

Epigenetic modulators of melanogenesis: the role of environment, lifestyle, and stress
Melanogenesis is the process through which a pigment called melanin is produced by melanocytes in melanosomes. Increased or decreased production of melanin through melanogenesis can lead to pigmentation diseases, namely, hyperpigmentatio...

Hypertranscription: the invisible hand in cancer epigenetics
Global upregulation of transcription, or hypertranscription, is observed in most human cancers, driven by the action of oncogene-encoded transcription factors (TFs). TF interactions with RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) are mediated by kinases...

Delineating SWI/SNF gene and subtype expression in cancer
Background: Approximately 20% of all cancers contain mutations in genes coding for components of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, which exists in three main subtypes: cBAF, PBAF, and GBAF. Mutations in SWI/SNF genes may disrupt ...
