Over the past century, human lifespan has increased remarkably, yet the inevitability of aging persists. The disparity between biological age, which reflects pathological deterioration and disease, and chronological age, indicative of normal aging, h...
Understanding how genetic variants affect the epigenome is key to interpreting GWAS, yet profiling these effects across the non-coding genome remains challenging due to experimental scalability. This necessitates accurate computational models. Existi...
Epigenetics encompasses mechanisms that can alter the expression of genes without changing the underlying genetic sequence. The epigenetic regulation of gene expression is initiated and sustained by several mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone...
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most common and aggressive type of malignant glioma with an average survival time of 12-18 mo. Despite the utilization of extensive surgical resections using cutting-edge neuroimaging, and advanced chemothe...
The epigenome influences gene regulation and phenotypes in response to exposures. Epigenome assessment can determine exposure history aiding in diagnosis. Here we developed and implemented a machine learning algorithm, the exposure signature discove...
Pediatric obesity can drastically heighten the risk of cardiometabolic alterations later in life, with insulin resistance standing as the cornerstone linking adiposity to the increased cardiovascular risk. Puberty has been pointed out as a critical s...
BACKGROUND: Depression is one of the most common mental disorders that affects >300 million people worldwide. There is a shortage of providers trained in the provision of mental health care, and the nursing workforce is essential in filling this gap....
With significant advancements of next generation sequencing technologies, large amounts of multi-omics data, including genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, have been accumulated, offering an unprecedented opportunity ...
Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are among the most common human congenital birth defects. Previous multiethnic studies have identified dozens of associated loci for both cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) and cleft palate alone (CP). Although seve...
