epigenetic modulations on the fetal hemoglobin induction
in recent years of experience fetal hemoglobin (hbf) induction considers as novel therapeutic approach for β-thalassemia and sickle cell in therapeutic approaches. several pharmacologic agents such as hydroxyurea, azacytidine, butyrate deriviates and immunomodulator drugs like pomalidomide and lnalidomide could able to up-regulate hbf level with different molecular and epigenetic paterns (1-4)....
متن کاملFetal Responses to Glucocorticoids
This chapter focuses primarily on the 30 years of often conflicting responses of intact fetuses to glucocorticoid exposure following Liggins' observation in 1969 that antenatal glucocorticoids induced early lung maturation in preterm sheep (1). Although the emphasis is on the surfactant system, other effects of glucocorticoid treatments on the fetal lung need to be discussed to dissociate them ...
متن کاملEpigenetic Regulation during Fetal Femur Development: DNA Methylation Matters
Epigenetic modifications are heritable changes in gene expression without changes in DNA sequence. DNA methylation has been implicated in the control of several cellular processes including differentiation, gene regulation, development, genomic imprinting and X-chromosome inactivation. Methylated cytosine residues at CpG dinucleotides are commonly associated with gene repression; conversely, st...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of fetal brain development and neurocognitive outcome.
T wenty-five years ago, the neurodevelopmental hypothesis of schizophrenia opened the way for analyzing potential prenatal influences on late postnatal pathogenetic events (1). Since that time, it has been well-established that hypoxia, infection, and other noxious factors can cause fetal brain injury and intrauterine growth restriction and that prenatal brain lesions can cause alterations in t...
متن کاملFetal Sex Modulates Developmental Response to Maternal Malnutrition
The incidence of obesity and metabolic diseases is dramatically high in rapidly developing countries. Causes have been related to intrinsic ethnic features with development of a thrifty genotype for adapting to food scarcity, prenatal programming by undernutrition, and postnatal exposure to obesogenic lifestyle. Observational studies in humans and experimental studies in animal models evidence ...
