The addition of acetyl tags (acetylation) weakens DNA-histone binding, making the DNA at that location more available to the proteins that drive transcription (Sapolsky, 2004). For example, garlic has been shown to increase the acetylation (and therefore ...

Epigenetics of depression

Depression is a serious behavioral disorder causing long lasting feelings of sadness and loss of interest. One form of depression is Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), in which symptoms of depression are present most days a week for 2 weeks or longer. Depression affects a large aspect of day-to-day activities such as thought process, sleep, and appetite. It can be accompanied by anxiety and decreased energy. According to the World Health Organization, depression affects about 350 million people worldwide and is the major cause of disability. Depression can be caused by the interaction of environmental and genetic factors. These factors include epigenetic modification of the genome in which there is a persistent change in gene expression without a change in the actual DNA sequence.
