Circulating microbiome DNA features and its effect on predicting clinicopathological characteristics of patients with colorectal cancer

Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) presents a complex tumor microenvironment influenced by genetic and microbial factors.Microbial DNA from the gut and tumor microenvironment can translocate into the bloodstream, forming a circulating microbiome associated with prognosis and clinicopathological features.This study investigates the peripher

Placental DNA methylation in pregnancies complicated by maternal diabetes and/or obesity: State of the art and research gaps

Maternal diabetes and/or obesity in pregnancy are undoubtedly associated with later disease-risk in the offspring.The placenta, interposed between the mother and the foetus, is a potential mediator of this risk through epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation.In recent years, multiple studies have identified differentially methylated CpG si

Dopamine D1 and D2 Receptors Are Important for Learning About Neutral-Valence Relationships in Sensory Preconditioning

Dopamine neurotransmission has been ascribed multiple functions with respect to both motivational and associative processes in reward-based learning, though these have proven difficult to tease apart.In order to better describe the role Seat Post of dopamine in associative learning, this series of experiments examined the potential of dopamine D1-
