Perceived discrimination, recognized as a chronic psychosocial stressor, has adverse consequences on health. DNA methylation (DNAm) may be a potential mechanism by which stressors get embedded into the human body at the molecular level and subsequently affect health outcomes. However, relatively little is known about the effects of perceived discrimination on DNAm.

DNA methylation (DNAm) is a key epigenetic mark that shows profound alterations in cancer. Read-level methylomes enable more in-depth analyses, due to their broad genomic coverage and preservation of rare cell-type signals, compared to summarized data such as 450K/EPIC microarrays. Here, we propose MethylBERT, a Transformer-based model for read-level methylation pattern classification.

Ocular disorders encompass a broad spectrum of phenotypic and clinical symptoms resulting from several genetic variants and environmental factors. The unique anatomy and physiology of the eye facilitate validation of cutting-edge gene editing treatments. Genome editing developments have allowed researchers to treat a variety of diseases, including ocular disorders.

Cells integrate metabolic information into core molecular processes such as transcription to adapt to environmental changes. Chromatin, the physiological template of the eukaryotic genome, has emerged as a sensor and rheostat for fluctuating intracellular metabolites. In this review, we highlight the growing list of chromatin-associated metabolites that are derived from diverse sources.

Prostate cancer is a multifactorial disease influenced by various molecular features. Over the past decades, epigenetics, which is the study of changes in gene expression without altering the DNA sequence, has been recognized as a major driver of this disease. In the past 50 years, advancements in technological tools to characterize the epigenome have highlighted crucial roles of epigenetic mechanisms throughout the entire spectrum of prostate cancer, from initiation to progression, including localized disease, metastatic dissemination, castration resistance and neuroendocrine transdifferentiation.
