Motherhood leaves lifelong brain marks via dopamine-linked epigenetic switch, mouse study suggests
Becoming a mother changes the brain not just temporarily, but for life. Pregnancy and the postpartum period trigger lasting ...
Scientists at UW Medicine, University of Washington, and their collaborators have pinpointed exactly when cytotoxic T lymphocytes form memories during infection. They also examined the epigenetic ...
Our experiences leave traces in the brain, stored in small groups of cells called “engrams”. Engrams are thought to hold the information of a memory and are reactivated when we remember, which makes ...
Researchers have revealed a novel mechanism by which the chromatin remodeler brahma-related gene 1 (Brg1) regulates Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in allergic lung inflammation. Brg1 ...

The same mouse study turned up a paramutation in mammals — previously seen only in plants and flies — that copies one parent’s epigenetic state onto the other’s …
A mouse experiment has revealed that one parent’s epigenetic methylation pattern can rewrite the matching gene inherited from ...
Scientists say they have found a pattern of so-called epigenetic 'marks' in a transition state between normal and pancreatic cancer cells in mice, and that the normal cells may keep at least a ...
Neurons have variable levels of chromatin compaction, shown as different shades of red. The less compact a neuron, the more likely it is to be recruited into the memory trace (green). When we form a ...
