AI Article Synopsis
- * The exact way RVT works in these conditions is still unclear, as it affects both biochemical pathways and epigenetic mechanisms.
- * This paper specifically examines how RVT influences biological activities through epigenetic mechanisms, particularly focusing on DNA methyltransferase (DNMT), histone deacetylase (HDAC), and lysine-specific demethylase-1 (LSD1).
Article Abstract
Resveratrol (RVT) is one of the main natural compounds studied worldwide due to its potential therapeutic use in the treatment of many diseases, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic disorders. Nevertheless, the mechanism of action of RVT in all of these conditions is not completely understood, as it can modify not only biochemical pathways but also epigenetic mechanisms. In this paper, we analyze the biological activities exhibited by RVT with a focus on the epigenetic mechanisms, especially those related to DNA methyltransferase (DNMT), histone deacetylase (HDAC) and lysine-specific demethylase-1 (LSD1).

Transcription factors collaborate with epigenetic regulatory factors to orchestrate cardiac differentiation for heart development, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Here, we report that GATA-6 induces cardiac differentiation but peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) reverses GATA-6-induced cardiac differentiation, possibly because GATA-6/PPARα recruits the polycomb protein complex containing EZH2/Ring1b/BMI1 to the promoter of the cardiac-specific α-myosin heavy chain (α-MHC) gene and suppresses α-MHC expression, which ultimately inhibits cardiac differentiation. Furthermore, Ring1b ubiquitylates PPARα and GATA-6.

Background: Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are intricate vascular anomalies that disrupt normal cerebral blood flow, potentially leading to severe neurological complications. Although the pathology of AVMs is not fully understood, epigenetic mechanisms have been implicated in their formation.
Methods: Transcriptional differences between cerebral AVMs and normal tissues were analyzed using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), identifying IGF2BP2 as a key differentially expressed gene.

Ten-eleven translocation 1 (TET1) protein is an alpha-ketoglutaric acid (α-KG) and Fe-dependent dioxygenase. It plays a role in the active demethylation of DNA by hydroxylation of 5-methyl-cytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine (5-hmC). Ten-eleven translocation 1 (TET1) protein is involved in maintaining genome methylation homeostasis and epigenetic regulation.

Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a severe postoperative complication in older patients. Epigenetic changes are hallmarks of senescence and are closely associated with cognitive impairment. However, the effects of anesthesia and surgery on the aging brain's epigenetic regulatory mechanisms and its impact on cognitive impairment remain unclear.

Gephyrocapsa huxleyi is a prevalent, bloom-forming phytoplankton species in the oceans. It exhibits a complex haplodiplontic life cycle, featuring a diploid-calcified phase, a haploid phase and a third 'decoupled' phase produced during viral infection. Decoupled cells display a haploid-like phenotype, but are diploid.
