Interrogating the importance of x-chromosome inactivation and reactivation for meiotic potential 

Mattimoe, Tom (Data de defensa: 2024-12-04)

X-chromosome dosage compensation in female mammals is achieved through X-chromosome inactivation (XCI), where one X chromosome is epigenetically silenced to ensure dosage parity with male cells. During germline development, ...

Deciphering lymphoma-specific DNA methylation alterations in healthy B cells: a single-cell multiomics study 

Bianchi, Agostina (Data de defensa: 2024-12-03)

Recent studies have shown that clones harboring cancer driver mutations colonize our tissues as we age. It remains to be determined whether the same is true for epigenetic alterations, specifically DNA methylation (DNAm) ...
