Epigenetics The spirituality of genetics – The Financial Express

Posted: July 6, 2021 at 1:51 am

SHAERI NAWAR | Published: June 30, 2021 12:56:05

Imagine a twin - Rahim and Karim. One day they visited a festival where Karim got lost and had ever since lived on the roadside. Rahim grew up in a stable normal family household while Karim grew up with less stability, less access to nutritious food and education but more laborious activity.

Forty years later, Rahim unexpectedly found his long lost sibling. More than the reunion with his brother, what shocked Rahim was the fact that his twin brother was not like him. Karim was shorter than him, had a deeper voice and no longer suffered from any genetically inherited disease that they both had in childhood.

As the traits are genetically inherited, Rahim decided to consult a genetic scientist. The scientist studied their genetic code and found that their DNA is exactly the same as it used to be when they were born. However, it turns out that they dont just look different but they actually have become genetically different just by living in different conditions despite having the same genetic codes. This is where epigenetics comes in the picture.

Epigenetics is the study of how the environment influences our genetic makeup. According to the national public health agency of the United States, The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC,) it is the study of how your behaviours and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work. Unlike genetic changes, epigenetic changes are reversible and do not change your DNA sequence, but they can change how your body reads a DNA sequence.

An example can help to understand it better. Say, our genome is a paragraph and all of the letters and punctuations would be in the exact same order and give the paragraph a meaning. Now keeping the letters in the same order while shuffling the punctuations would potentially change the message of the paragraph for a reader. Similarly, no cell of the body will be able to read and follow the instructions in the DNA sequence as it results in epigenetic changes. Epigenetics literally means above genetics where a change is evident without a physical change in the DNA sequence.

What causes epigenetic changes?

Diet, physical activity, smoking, environmental pollutants, family relationships, psychological stress, working on night shifts, financial status and many more are the core causes of epigenetic changes.

How epigenetics works

The genetic mechanism of epigenetics is quite complex following a cascade of biological reactions. Nonetheless, a simplified explanation for the curious minds has been presented.

Genes act as the switch that controls everything our body does. Specific genes are there to do specific functions and show specific traits. This genetic switch needs to be turned on or off in order for a gene to work. This turning on/off phenomenon is controlled by a chemical (a methyl group) being added or removed from that gene. This phenomenon is called DNA methylation. For example, a gene that is normally supposed to remain off and if a methyl group is added to turn the gene on, then that could result in epigenetic changes.

The placebo effects

Placebo is a substance or treatment, based on the idea that our brain can convince our body into accepting a fake treatment and thus having a cure somewhat. But have you ever pondered about the mechanism behind it? How does a supposedly fake treatment magically improve health like real ones? Many would answer it happens because we are conditioned to think that we are getting treated which is partially correct.

Our thoughts influence the level of our hormones which run some of the brain functions. The brain sends signals to the cell to function in a certain way. The cell signals to switch a gene on or off to carry the cellular function. As a result, it all comes down to the regulation of the genetic switch. The bottom line is that our mind-body connection is reinforced by epigenetics.

For instance, the genome is the actual hardware of the computer (your body), then epigenome is more like the software which tells the hardware what to do even though the genome is going to do all the work. The fact is that you can influence your genetic expression.

Interestingly, epigenetic characteristics are passed on to children from parents as well. If somebody is a chain smoker, thats bad for the individual but it is thought that he wouldnt necessarily be harming his unborn child in any measurable way. However, this idea is changing pretty rapidly because some of the epigenetic information get stuck on the genomes and are passed from generation to generation. So, if you are a chain smoker, chances are your kids would have more affinity towards smoking than a non-smokers kid.

Epigenetic anomalies

Over the last few decades, numerous scientific studies have been conducted to decode the science behind male infertility. As a matter of fact, the valid cause behind the mechanism of more than 50 per cent of male infertility cases is unknown. Owing to this concern, a number of studies have been conducted, which have inferred that the abnormal methylation of the sperm is highly correlated with male infertility.

Also, epigenetic changes are now considered as one of the hallmarks of many cancers. Disruption of epigenetic processes can lead to altered gene function and transform cells causing malignancies and cancer.

However, as the old saying goes, the cure lies in the problem. Epigenetics both causes and cures cancer. In a study published in the Japanese Journal of Clinical Oncology, it has been found that methylation that takes place in tissues and that is non-cancerous acts as a signal to identify the risk of tumour formation. So, this is emerging as a target for cancer prevention.

Epigenetic drugs

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved seven epigenetic drugs for the treatment of haematological malignancies or cancer. Some of these drugs have been acquired from the enzymes that function during epigenetic occurrences.

All in all, from being the cause of some potential diseases and cure of some, epigenetics has enormous advantages. It gives one the power to shape oneself and as a matter of fact, soon epigenetics would be the personalised healthcare tool for individuals.

‘Black fungus’ infections on the rise in India: report – New York Post

Posted: June 23, 2021 at 2:43 am

Cases of mucormycosis or black fungus,a rare but serious fungal infection, are climbing in India among somecoronaviruspatients, pernews reports.

Infections have risen to over 30,000 in three weeks, with at least 2,100 deaths, the New York Timesreported,compounding the need to protect the countrys population, a large percentage of which remain unvaccinated against COVID-19 ahead of a feared third wavethis fall.

The infection is caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes which live throughout the environment and typically do not agitate otherwise healthy people, according to theCenters for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

However, in those who have health problems, or take medications that lower the bodys ability to fight off germs and sickness, it could infect the sinuses or lungs when inhaled through the air or on injured skin. Diabetes, cancer, organ transplants, stem cell transplants, low white blood cells, long-term corticosteroid use, injection drug use, too much iron, skin injury and premature or low birth weight are all considered to be risk factors.

Doctors in India suspect the countrys overwhelmed hospitals and shortage of medical oxygen left patients vulnerable to the fungal infection. Dr. Bela Prajapati, in charge of treatment for hundreds of mucormycosis patients, told the Times that doctors excessive use of steroids to fight inflammation in coronavirus patients, to help them breathe easier, in turn spiked blood sugar levels and left diabetes patients at risk of infection.

Researcher and microbiologist Dr. Arunaloke Chakrabarti noted many doctors didnt have time to question patients over underlying conditions before turning to the steroids.

Doctors hardly had any time to do patient management, Chakrabarti told the newspaper. They were all looking at how to take care of the respiratory tract.

Turning to Books to Grasp the Most Ungraspable Disease – The New York Times

Posted: June 23, 2021 at 2:43 am

Suzanne Corkins 2013 book Permanent Present Tense falls into this category. Corkin, a research psychologist, presents a fascinating case study of her patient, Henry Molaison, a man with no memory. Molaison or H.M., as he was known in the scientific literature until his death in 2008 was a 27-year-old with severe epilepsy when he underwent radical brain surgery in 1953 to cure his intractable seizures. His Yale surgeon, William Scoville, drilled two holes in the skull just above his eyes and suctioned out a small cupful of tissue from both his medial temporal lobes. The excised tissue included the olfactory lobes, which regulate smell, the amygdala, which controls emotions, and half of the hippocampus, whose function was not properly understood at the time.

Though Molaisons seizures largely abated after the operation, he developed an even bigger problem, which manifested almost immediately after his surgery. He couldnt remember who his hospital caregivers were, no matter how many times he was introduced to them. He got lost going to the bathroom, no matter how many times he was shown where it was. Daily events vanished from his mind almost as soon as they had occurred. The condition was called anterograde amnesia.

His amnesia was eventually traced to damage to the hippocampus, a structure critically concerned in the retention of current experience, as Scoville and a colleague later wrote. His existing memories remained largely intact. He could still remember vacations with his parents, jobs hed held as a teenager, going target shooting with his father and other events from his childhood. Yet, like most patients living with dementia, he could form no new long-term memories. With no new memories, he lived in a perpetual present, disconnected from his past (or at least the past after his surgery) and his future. It was like waking from a dream, he told Corkin. Every day is alone in

itself.

Though dementia today is better understood than ever before, the therapeutic landscape for the condition has only recently gotten a bit less bleak. In early June, the F.D.A. approved the first new medication for Alzheimers disease in nearly two decades. And though the approval process has been subject to controversy and its not clear how well the drug actually works, the decision represents some movement after hundreds of experimental remedies have failed in hundreds of clinical trials. Yet its still accurate to say that dementia remains the only chronic and widespread medical scourge for which there are literally no effective treatments.

A recent book that explores this Sisyphean search for a cure is In Pursuit of Memory: The Fight Against Alzheimers, by Joseph Jebelli, published in 2017. A British neuroscientist, Jebelli travels around the world to discover the latest in dementia research. He goes to Papua New Guinea, Japan, India and China to learn about experimental (but mostly futile) treatments, including stem cells, blood transfusions and repurposed cancer drugs. In the end, he acknowledges how little medicine currently has to offer patients living with dementia, even as he holds out hope (far-fetched, in my view) for a cure in 10 years.

Epigenetics | New Scientist

Posted: June 23, 2021 at 2:40 am

By Alice Klein

Epigenetics is the study of how genes are influenced by the environment.

Every person is born with a fixed set of genes, but they can be switched on or off in different cells and in response to lifestyle factors like diet, exercise and stress.

Genes, which are sequences of DNA, are turned on and off by small chemical tags called epigenetic marks (epigenetics literally means on top of genetics). The best-known epigenetic marks are called methyl groups.

Epigenetics explains how cells in the body can perform different functions, even though they carry the same DNA instruction manuals. For example, the liver and brain cells of an individual contain exactly the same DNA, but they behave differently because they have different epigenetic marks controlling the genes they can switch on and off.

Research over the last two decades has revealed that epigenetic marks can be altered by lifestyle and environmental factors like drinking coffee, folic acid intake, obesity, exercise, anxiety, smoking, and exposure to air pollution. This may help to explain why lifestyle factors affect our chances of developing certain conditions like cancer and diabetes, because epigenetic marks can activate or silence certain genes involved in disease progression.

There is some evidence that epigenetic changes can be passed down to subsequent generations.

For example, when male mice are trained to associate a cherry blossom smell with an electric shock, epigenetic changes occur in their sperm. These changes seem to be passed to their pups and their grand-pups, meaning they too show signs of fear when exposed to cherry blossom smells.

This cross-generational epigenetic effect is harder to prove in humans, but there are some hints that it occurs. For example, one study found that grandchildren of Swedish men who experienced famine had lower rates of diabetes, whereas grandchildren of well-fed men had higher rates. Another study found that sons of US Civil War soldiers who spent time in prisoner-of-war camps were more likely to die young than sons of non-imprisoned soldiers, possibly because they inherited epigenetic elements of their fathers trauma.

Some scientists are sceptical about whether epigenetic changes can be passed down in families because epigenetic marks are erased when sperm and eggs form embryos. Others, however, believe that some epigenetic marks are able to slip through this reprogramming process, or that there are mechanisms of epigenetic inheritance we havent discovered yet.

Because epigenetic changes are common in cancer, drugs have been developed to try to treat cancer by reversing these changes.

The first approved epigenetic cancer drug was azacytidine, which is used to treat leukaemia. It works by removing methyl groups from DNA in order to re-activate tumour suppressor genes that stop cancer cells from growing and dividing.

Since the approval of azacytidine in 2004, five more epigenetic cancer drugs have been approved, and several more are being evaluated in clinical trials.

One drawback of current epigenetic cancer drugs is that they alter the expression of many different genes, not just those involved in cancer, which can lead to side-effects. Research is currently underway to try to target them more precisely to relevant genes.

Mysteries of Epigenetics: There’s More to Genes Than DNA – SciTechDaily

Posted: June 23, 2021 at 2:40 am

Biologists at the Universities of Bath and Vienna have discovered 71 new imprinted genes in the mouse genome, a finding that takes them a step closer to unraveling some of the mysteries of epigenetics an area of science that describes how genes are switched on (and off) in different cells at different stages in development and adulthood.

To understand the importance of imprinted genes to inheritance, we need to step back and ask how inheritance works in general. Most of the thirty trillion cells in a persons body contain genes that come from both their mother and father, with each parent contributing one version of each gene. The unique combination of genes goes part of the way to making an individual unique. Usually, each gene in a pair is equally active or inactive in a given cell. This is not the case for imprinted genes. These genes which make up less than one percent of the total of 20,000+ genes tend to be more active (sometimes much more active) in one parental version than the other.

Until now, researchers were aware of around 130 well-documented imprinted genes in the mouse genome the new additions take this number to over 200. Professor Tony Perry, who led the research from the Department of Biology & Biochemistry at Bath, said: Imprinting affects an important family of genes, with different implications for health and disease, so the seventy-plus new ones add an important piece of the jigsaw.

Close examination of the newly identified genes has allowed Professor Perry and his colleagues to make a second important discovery: the switching on and off of imprinted genes is not always related to DNA methylation, where methyl groups are added to genomic DNA (a process that is known to repress gene activity, switching them off). DNA methylation was the first known type of imprint, and was discovered around thirty years ago. From the results of the new work, it seems that a greater contribution to imprinting is made by histones structures that are wrapped up with genomic DNA in chromosomes.

A normal 4-day-old mouse embryo (L) and an embryo of the same age that has been manipulated to contain maternal chromosomes only (parthenogenote). At this stage, the embryos (blastocysts) appear similar, but the parthenogenote will soon die, underscoring the importance of inheriting imprinted genes from both parents. Different cell types are stained green or red. Credit: Dr. Maki Asami, University of Bath

Although scientists have known for some time that histones act as dimmer switches for genes, fading them off (or back on), until now it was thought that DNA methylation provided the major switch for imprinted gene activity. The findings from the new study cast doubt on this assumption: many of the newly identified genes were found to be associated with changes to the histone 3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3), and only a minority with DNA methylation.

Scientists have yet to work out how one parental version of a given gene can be switched (or faded) on or off and maintained that way while the other is in the opposite state. It is known that much of the on/off switching occurs during the formation of gametes (sperm and egg), but the precise mechanisms remain unclear. This new study points to the intriguing possibility that some imprinted genes may not be marked in gametes, but become active later in development, or even in adulthood.

Although it only involves a small proportion of genes, imprinting is important in later life. If it goes wrong, and the imprinted gene copy from one parent is switched on when it should be off (or vice versa), disease or death occur. Faulty imprinted genes are associated with many diseases, including neurological and metabolic disorders, and cancer.

We may underestimate how important the relationship between imprinting and disease is, as well as the relationship of imprinting to the inheritance of parentally-acquired disease, such as obesity, said Professor Perry. Hopefully, this improved picture of imprinting will increase our understanding of disease.

Blunting the impact of poor social conditions in South Africa will have big health benefits – The Conversation Africa

Posted: June 23, 2021 at 2:40 am

Poverty and socio-economic disparity are among the greatest obstacles facing South Africans. About 63% of children younger than six live in poverty. The country is also experiencing increasing levels of unemployment. In addition theres a high prevalence of femicide and inter-partner violence which is often associated with excessive alcohol consumption and substance abuse.

Harsh socio-environmental factors, especially when they happen in the early years of a childs life, can establish a developmental biology of misfortune. This involves neurobiological and epigenetic processes that go on to steer a persons life towards poor health, unrealised potential and a shorter life.

Neurobiology here refers to normal brain development. This is, at times, controlled by epigenetic mechanisms. These are biological reactions involving certain proteins that interact with DNA, physically altering its structure. Epigenetics can be influenced by our physical environment and surroundings. Adverse environments can profoundly alter gene expression and have detrimental health effects including disturbed brain development.

There are clear disadvantages to ignoring the physical environment in relation to adverse epigenetic programming. Firstly, it can result in a future population with deteriorated physical and mental health these individuals would also be more susceptible to infectious diseases. Secondly, it can affect the future health and economic development of the country.

Thats why child and adolescent health is an urgent priority and should be placed at the centre of the healthcare system.

In our recent paper my colleagues and I described how adverse socio-environmental factors in early life can programme the outcome of obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and mental health disorders in adulthood. These noncommunicable diseases are on the rise and are taking a heavy toll on peoples lives, and the countrys healthcare system.

We set out the social and environmental conditions experienced by young South Africans, and discuss the potential contribution of epigenetics to the current and future prevalence of noncommunicable diseases.

We also unpack some early interventions that can help improve child and adolescent health. The cornerstones are: providing optimum nutrition, providing a secure environment, physical activity and education.

South Africa is one of most unequal societies in the world. Children who are exposed to such levels of poverty can suffer immediate and longterm effects. Children from poor families have higher rates of chronic illness and experience worse health in adulthood.

More than half (55%) of the population experiences poverty, with childhood poverty affecting 63% of children.

With diet being intertwined with emotions, cognition and behaviour, close attention should be paid to nutrition.

Research has shown that certain diets are hugely beneficial to peoples health. One example is a diet thats high in polyphenols. These are plant compounds found in tea, chocolates, herbs and spices, fruit, vegetables and nuts. Several have been shown to be able to reduce illnesses by preventing oxidative stress and inflammation in the brain.

On top of this, South Africa sits on a botanical goldmine of indigenous medicinal plants. Many have anti-obesity, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic as well as anti-ageing properties among others.

Finally, while the benefits of breastfeeding for both mother and childhave long been known, South Africa, like most countries, is still not doing enough to support mothers to breastfeed, despite the immense economic implications.

The failure to optimise nutrition, especially during the critical periods of development for vulnerable young children, should be avoided at all costs. There is a definite requirement for efforts directed at improving the national diet.

But healthier foods are far more expensive than less healthy, nutritionally poor foods. Products like lean meat, fish, fruit and vegetables generally cost more than oil heavy processed foods which contain more sugar and fat.

This makes the promotion of a quality diet difficult, because it is simply unaffordable for many South Africans.

International research has shown that the best strategies for changing the dietary environment in favour of healthier foods are those aimed at population level, and are accomplished by mass media nutrition campaigns and transparent food labelling. Some countries have taken more drastic action through regulation and taxation of unhealthy foods.

South Africa needs champions for child and adolescent health. The plight of young children needs to be prioritised and placed at the centre of the countrys goals.

An early investment in childrens health, education, development, security and well-being would provide benefits that compound during a persons lifetime. It would improve their prospects and those of their children and thus society as a whole.
