P-13: Comparison of Sperm Quality, Oxidative Stress, DNA Fragmentation, Protamine Deficiency, and DNA Methylation in Varicocele and Fertile Individuals

s:1993:"Background: There are many approaches that gene expression is controlled in eukaryotes. DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms that cells use to control gene expression and lock genes in the "off" position. In addition, sperm DNA damage can correlate with DNA methylation defect. There is evidence that sperm of infertile men contain more DNA damage than fertile men and t...

Evaluation of epigenetic changes of liver tissue induced by oral administration of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles and possible protective role of Nigella Sativa oil, in adult male albino rats

Objective (s): Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) have been recognized as biologically inert material and have been used in a multitude of applications. Nevertheless, the negative impact on the human health is not yet well understood. Aim of the work: The study attempted to evaluate the epigenetic changes of the genome, in the form of DNA methylation in liver tissue samples, resulting fr...

Age-Related Changes in the Global DNA Methylation Profile of Leukocytes Are Linked to Nutrition but Are Not Associated with the MTHFR C677T Genotype or to Functional Capacities

Global DNA methylation of peripheral blood leukocytes has been recently proposed as a potential biomarker for disease risk. However, the amplitude of the changes in DNA methylation associated with normal aging and the impacts of environmental changes on this variation are still unclear. In this context, we evaluated the association of global DNA methylation with nutritional habits, tobacco smok...

Evaluation of Changes in Global DNA Methylation during Osteoblastic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells: A Laboratory Study

Background and Objectives: Control processes in osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells are not yet fully understood. Epigenetic mechanisms, especially the methylation of CpG Islands in the promoter of genes, are considered as one of the most important control mechanisms in stem cell differentiation. In the process of differentiation, it is debated whether only the methylation of...

DNA methylation and cognitive functioning in healthy older adults.

Long-term supplementation with folic acid may improve cognitive performance in older individuals. The relationship between folate status and cognitive performance might be mediated by changes in methylation capacity, as methylation reactions are important for normal functioning of the brain. Although aberrant DNA methylation has been implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders, the relationship ...
