G-quadruplex forming regions in <i>GCK</i> and <i>TM6SF2</i> are targets for differential DNA methylation in metabolic disease and hepatocellular carcinoma patients
2024-03-26
Abstract excerpt
The alarming increase in global rates of metabolic diseases (MetDs) and their association with cancer risk renders them a considerable burden on our society. The interplay of environmental and genetic factors in causing MetDs may be reflected in DNA methylation patterns, particularly at non-canonical (non-B) DNA structures, such as G-quadruplexes (G4s) or R-loops. To gain insight into the mechanisms of MetD progre...
