Article Synopsis
- Research indicates that maternal cholesterol levels during pregnancy may increase the risk of atherosclerotic disease in their offspring, though the specific mechanisms are still unclear.
- A study analyzed fetal aorta samples from aborted fetuses of mothers with normal and high cholesterol, finding significant DNA methylation changes in the SREBF2 gene in those from hypercholesterolemic mothers.
- The results suggest a need for improved cardiovascular prevention programs for children of mothers with high cholesterol and highlight the importance of further investigating the epigenetic factors related to this issue.
Serrated adenomas are genetically heterogeneous, and the histological classification into sessile serrated (SSA) adenoma and traditional serrated adenoma (TSA) does not reflect the molecular landscape. The objective of this study was to assess clinical or pathological factors associated with BRAF-V600E mutation in serrated adenomas. Systematic review and meta-analysis was performed by searching electronic databases from January 2011 to January 2019 for studies assessing the association of BRAF-V600E mutation with clinical or pathological features of serrated adenomas.
