Environmental Influences on Epigenetic Regulation
Gametogenesis is a sexually dimorphic process requiring profound differences in germ cell differentiation between the sexes. In mammals, the presence of heteromorphic sex chromosomes in males creates additional sex-specific challenges, including incomplete X and Y pairing during meiotic prophase. This triggers formation of a heterochromatin domain, the XY body. The XY body disassembles after pr...
متن کاملEpigenetic influences on brain development and plasticity.
A fine interplay exists between sensory experience and innate genetic programs leading to the sculpting of neuronal circuits during early brain development. Recent evidence suggests that the dynamic regulation of gene expression through epigenetic mechanisms is at the interface between environmental stimuli and long lasting molecular, cellular and complex behavioral phenotypes acquired during p...
متن کاملGenetic influences on 'environmental' factors.
Childhood environment, social environment and behavior, leisure time activities and life events have been hypothesized to contribute to individual differences in cognitive abilities and physical and emotional well-being. These factors are often labeled 'environmental', suggesting they shape but not reflect individual differences in behavior. The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that ...
متن کاملEnvironmental Influences on Color Vision
It is evident that color vision evolved to inform organisms about their environment and thus must be shaped by the environment the organism is in. The color properties of the world are a potent factor affecting not only the basic mechanisms of color vision within a species but also how they are calibrated and fine-tuned within the individual. As a result, many aspects of the physiology of color...
متن کاملEnvironmental Influences on Prenatal Development
Similarly, new proposals relative to vaccination with modified live viruses, such as those which have been devised by Koprowski and Sabin, although still in the research phase, receive a good review of the situation up to that date. A third new subject, which has actually only come into being in the last four or five years, is found in the papers dealing with the whole new family of enteric sir...
