The discovery of epigenetic modulators (writers, erasers, readers, and remodelers) has shed light on previously underappreciated biological mechanisms that promote diseases. With these insights, novel biomarkers and innovative combination therapies can be used to address challenging and difficult to treat disease states. This review highlights key mechanisms that epigenetic writers, erasers, readers, and remodelers control, as well as their connection with disease states and recent advances in associated epigenetic therapies.

-produced blastocysts are exposed to different stimuli when compared with ones. This includes the culture of embryos in a sturdy petri-dish, while embryos develop in a soft and dynamic structure. Here we hypothesized that a softer environment could differently modulate the produced embryos To that aim, presumptive zygotes were produced by fertilization and divided into three groups: 1) Cultured in a regular Petri dish - Control (CON); 2) Cultured on top of an alginate hydrogel surface (TOP); 3) Encapsulated inside an alginate hydrogel sphere (ENC) and cultured.

Ewing sarcoma (EWS) is the second most common bone tumor affecting children and young adults, with dismal outcomes for patients with metastasis at diagnosis. Mechanisms leading to metastasis remain poorly understood. To deepen our knowledge on EWS progression, we have profiled tumors and metastases from a spontaneous metastasis mouse model using a multi-omics approach.

This study investigates the mechanism of PHF20 in osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). BMSCs from Balb/c mouse were cultured and identified through osteogenesis, adipogenesis, and flow cytometry. After osteogenic induction, the levels of OPN and OCN in BMSCs were detected by RT-qPCR.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used industrial compound commonly found in various everyday plastic products. Known for its endocrine-disrupting properties, BPA can enter the human body through multiple pathways. Prenatal exposure to BPA not only disrupts placental structure and function but also interferes with normal steroid metabolism.

Background: The primary objective of this study was to examine whether ARID1A mutations confer a fitness advantage to gastric cancer from an immunological perspective, along with elucidating the underlying mechanism. Additionally, we aimed to identify the clinical potential of combining epigenetic inhibitors with immune checkpoint inhibitors to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy for gastric cancer.
Methods: The correlation between ARID1A gene expression and gastric cancer patient survival was analyzed using the GEO dataset GSE62254.
