We have developed Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) of a newborn and a centenarian to address the epigenetic drifts in human aging, which might be an alternative pathway to explain the age-associated alterations. In addition, we have analyzed the methylome of a middle-age donor (26 years). Ex...

Examination of two DNA methylomes at the most extreme points of their lives to see differences that might contribute to explain the aged phenotype We have performed Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) and methylation array technology of newborn and a centenarian samples to address the Epigeneti...

Global Transcriptional analysis of BRG1 in lung cancer cells Comparative transcriptional profile comparing the expression in lung cancer cells before and after restoring the wild type BRG1 or mutant BRG1 expression controlled by the Tet-ON system (doxycycline depending expression)

Human aging implies many phenotypic modifications and an increased susceptibility to many common diseases, phenomena that cannot be fully explained by the constrained genetic setting. An alternative pathway that could explain the age-associated alterations is epigenetic drifts. To address this issue...

DNA methylation differences between Newborns and Nonagenarians The study aimed to compare the DNA methylation differences between newborns and nonagenarians using methylation array technology (450K, Illumina). The identified differently methylated CpG were further analyzed for their presence in dise...

A Genome-wide association study of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) with an Italian cohort and loci meeting suggestive criteria were confirmed using a replication dataset from a previous Canadian study. The results confirmed associations for IL12A, IL12RB2, and HLA (peak between DQA1 and DQB1) and...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major cause of cancer mortality and a serious health concern worldwide. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with high CRC incidence and mortality, suggesting a protective effect of vitamin D against this neoplasia. Although the antiproliferative and prodifferentiation act...
