Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have published results that shed new light on an old ...

Researchers uncover a link between genetic mutations and epigenetic changes, two major contributors to aging. Their findings ...

Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, and they do so without altering the sequence of genes. These may involve chemical groups like methyl tags that adorn DNA, or ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...
