There is growing evidence for the role of DNA methylation (DNAm) quantitative trait loci (mQTLs) in the genetics of complex traits, including psychiatric disorders. However, due to extensive linkage disequilibrium (LD) of the genome, it is challengin...
BACKGROUND: DNA Methylation is one of the most important epigenetic processes that are crucial to regulating the functioning of the human genome without altering the DNA sequence. DNA Methylation data for cancer patients are becoming more accessible ...
DNA N6-methyladenine (6mA) is a key DNA modification, which plays versatile roles in the cellular processes, including regulation of gene expression, DNA repair, and DNA replication. DNA 6mA is closely associated with many diseases in the mammals and...
MOTIVATION: DNA N6-methyladenine (6mA) is a pivotal DNA modification for various biological processes. More accurate prediction of 6mA methylation sites plays an irreplaceable part in grasping the internal rationale of related biological activities. ...

PURPOSE: Age can be an important clue in uncovering the identity of persons that left biological evidence at crime scenes. With the availability of DNA methylation data, several age prediction models are developed by using statistical and machine lea...
BACKGROUND: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), affected collectively by genetic and environmental factors, is the common subtype of chronic heart failure. Although the available risk assessment methods for HFpEF have achieved som...
DNA methylation dynamics emerged as a promising biomarker of mammalian aging, with multivariate machine learning models ('epigenetic clocks') enabling measurement of biological age in bulk tissue samples. However, intrinsically sparse and binarized m...
Recently, tumor immunotherapy based on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has been introduced and widely adopted for various tumor types. Nevertheless, tumor immunotherapy has a few drawbacks, including significant uncertainty of outcome, the possibi...
