Epigenetics studies genetic effects notencoded in the DNA sequence of an organism, hence the prefix epi- (Greek: επί– over, outside of, around).[1][2] Such effects on cellular and physiological phenotypic traits may result from external or environmental factors that switch genes on and off and affect how cells express genes.[3][4] These alterations may or may notContinue reading “Why does our skin causing us to age?”

Contributing factors to aging
It has been a long standing goal to develop molecular biomarkers of biological age. Recent studies demonstrate that powerful epigenetic biomarkers of aging can be defined based on DNA methylation levels. For example, the epigenetic clock (PMID: 24138928) is a multivariate age estimation method that applies to sorted cell types (CD4T cells or neurons), complexContinue reading “Contributing factors to aging”

Antisocial personality disorder in 70% of prison inmates
Antisocial personality disorder Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), also known as dissocial personality disorder (DPD) and sociopathy, is apersonality disorder, characterized by a pervasive pattern of disregard for, or violation of, the rights of others. Prisoners An international team of Finnish, American, British, and Swedish researchers examined data from the Finnish CRIME sample — a databaseContinue reading “Antisocial personality disorder in 70% of prison inmates”

Cancer results from a diseased genome, excited by environmental toxins
Cancer results from a diseased genome. Each tumor contains a collection of genomic aberrations that activate oncogenes and inactivate tumor suppressor genes. A recent survey of the scientific literature identified 229 oncogenes (or “dominant” cancer genes) and 62 tumor suppressors (“recessive” cancer genes), suggesting that more than 1% of the human genome may contribute directlyContinue reading “Cancer results from a diseased genome, excited by environmental toxins”

Genetics of Alzheimer’s or Dementia
Many people with dementia are concerned that they have inherited the condition and that they may in turn pass it on to their children. Also, family members of people with dementia are sometimes concerned that they might be more likely to develop dementia themselves. Genes can play a role in the development of dementia, butContinue reading “Genetics of Alzheimer’s or Dementia”

Ebola may not be a deadly disease for everyone
A newly developed mouse model suggests that genetic factors are behind the mild-to-deadly range of reactions to the Ebola virus. WASHINGTON: Ebola may not be a deadly disease for everyone, suggests a new study that found the virus affects different people differently. A newly developed mouse model suggests that genetic factors are behind the mild-to-deadlyContinue reading “Ebola may not be a deadly disease for everyone”
Mullein herb for lung and breast health – COPD signs, symptoms and diagnosis
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the term used to describe chronic lung conditions that cause severe shortness of breath and block the airways in your lungs. Usually it refers to long-lasting bronchitis or emphysema, but can also include asthmatic bronchitis (bronchial asthma). All of these diseases cause the air sacsContinue reading “Mullein herb for lung and breast health – COPD signs, symptoms and diagnosis”
