Stress, Epigenetics, and Alcoholism
Acute and chronic stressors have been associated with alterations in mood and increased anxiety that may eventually result in the development of stress-related psychiatric disorders. Stress and associated disorders, including anxiety, are key factors in the development of alcoholism because alcohol consumption can temporarily reduce the drinker's dysphoria. One molecule that may help mediate th...
متن کاملThe role of epigenetics in the endothelial cell shear stress response and atherosclerosis.
Currently in the field of vascular biology, the role of epigenetics in endothelial cell biology and vascular disease has attracted more in-depth study. Using both in vitro and in vivo models of blood flow, investigators have recently begun to reveal the underlying epigenetic regulation of endothelial gene expression. Recently, our group, along with two other independent groups, have demonstrate...
متن کاملEpigenetics and Oxidative Stress in Aging
Aging is a multifactorial process characterized by the progressive loss of physiological functions, leading to an increased vulnerability to age-associated diseases and finally to death. Several theories have been proposed to explain the nature of aging. One of the most known identifies the free radicals produced by the mitochondrial metabolism as the cause of cellular and DNA damage. However, ...
متن کاملEpigenetics of stress adaptations in the brain
Recent findings in epigenetics shed new light on the regulation of gene expression in the central nervous system (CNS) during stress. The most frequently studied epigenetic mechanisms are DNA methylation, histone modifications and microRNA activity. These mechanisms stably determine cell phenotype but can also be responsible for dynamic molecular adaptations of the CNS to stressors. The limbic-...
متن کاملFunctional somatic syndromes, stress pathologies, and epigenetics.
Recently Henningsen, Zipfel, and Herzog described the nature and management of functional somatic syndromes (FSS). They pointed out that functional somatic syndromes are “characterized by patterns of persistent bodily complaints for which adequate examination does not reveal suffi ciently explanatory structural or other specifi ed pathology,” 1(p946) but they are common worldwide and are seen b...
