The FvABF3-FvALKBH10B-FvSEP3 cascade regulates fruit ripening in strawberry by Renkun Tang, Xiaoyu Duan, Leilei Zhou, Guangtong Gao, Jinying Liu, Yuying Wang, Xingfeng Shao, Guozheng Qin

“…Abstract Fruit ripening is a highly-orchestrated process that requires the fine-tuning and precise control of gene expression, which is mainly governed by phytohormones, epigenetic modifiers, and transcription factors. How these intrinsic regulators coordinately modulate the ripening remains elusive. …”

Predicting exacerbation of renal function by DNA methylation clock and DNA damage of urinary shedding cells: a pilot study by Akihito Hishikawa, Erina Sugita Nishimura, Norifumi Yoshimoto, Ran Nakamichi, Eriko Yoshida Hama, Wataru Ito, Tomomi Maruki, Kengo Nagashima, Ryoko Shimizu-Hirota, Hiromasa Takaishi, Hiroshi Itoh, Kaori Hayashi

“…Abstract Recent reports have shown the feasibility of measuring biological age from DNA methylation levels in blood cells from specific regions identified by machine learning, collectively known as the epigenetic clock or DNA methylation clock. While extensive research has explored the association of the DNA methylation clock with cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease, its relationship with kidney diseases remains largely unexplored. …”
