Summary: This article discusses the pathogenesis of alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD) and alcoholic liver disease (ALD), with a focus on the role of epigenetic factors in the development of liver disorders. Through cellular and animal model studies, the alcohol-induced epigenetic modifications (AIEM) and their relationship with liver diseases are explored, and epigenetics-based therapeutic options for managing ARLD and ALD are proposed.

Summary: Senescence is a complex cellular stress response that leads to loss of proliferative capacity and changes in secretory pattern. Transcriptional regulation of multiple genes and epigenetic alterations to DNA and chromatin play crucial roles in the induction and maintenance of senescence. This review highlights the changes in chromatin, DNA methylation, histone alterations, and the specific epigenetic regulation of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP).

Summary: A comprehensive multi-omics approach was used to study the effects of differential H3K27me3 deposition driven by EZH2 mutations. The study identified pathways involved in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and migration that are impacted by EZH2 GOF and LOF mutants. The results shed light on EZH2-mediated cell transformative processes from the epigenetic to the phenotypic level, providing insights for improved diagnostics and treatment in hematologic malignancies with mutated EZH2.

Summary: Current data suggest that epigenetic alterations play a key role in the initiation and subclonal evolution of breast cancer, especially in the aggressive molecular subgroup of triple-negative breast cancer. The extracellular matrix undergoes significant structural alterations during cancer progression, which are closely linked with epigenetic modifiers. Targeting tumor microenvironment and epigenetic pathways may provide potential therapeutic strategies, particularly in triple-negative breast cancer where standard chemotherapy is limited.

Summary: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder caused by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. Recent advance in genomics and epigenetics have revealed epigenetic mechanisms in PD. These epigenetic modifications include DNA methylation, post-translational histone modifications, chromatin remodeling, and RNA-based mechanisms, which regulate cellular functions in almost all cells. Epigenetic alterations are involved in multiple aspects of neuronal development and neurodegeneration in PD.

Summary: Osteosarcoma is a common malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. Despite improvements in clinical outcomes, early detection is crucial for better survival rates and reducing the need for debilitating treatments like amputations. Research in the field of epigenetics, focusing on changes in genetic expression above the genome, shows potential for understanding and improving the treatment of osteosarcoma.

Summary: Environmental epigenetics has become a key research focus in climate change and environmental pollutant investigations in aquatic ecosystems. DNA methylation is the most robust epigenetic regulatory mark studied in aquatic animals, while histone variants and ncRNA regulation are less popular. Next generation sequencing and mass spectrometry-based methods offer opportunities for large-scale epigenetic studies in the future.

Summary: Breast cancer is a frequent and deadly disease in women, with histone-modifying enzymes playing a role in treatment response and patient outcomes. Epigenetic changes to chromatin affect the tumor environment and can be targeted for breast cancer treatment. Understanding these mechanisms may improve therapeutic interventions and patient outcomes.

Summary: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as carbohydrate intolerance that appears or is diagnosed for the first time during pregnancy. Studies have shown that GDM can impact both pregnancy and offspring development, leading to long-term adverse health outcomes. Epigenetic changes such as histone modification, DNA methylation, and altered ncRNA function, including miRNAs, play a role in this process.
