Is DNA methylation the missing link in diagnosing and treating psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis?

Researchers across Europe have delved into the DNA methylation patterns in CD4+ T-cells of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients, unveiling potential new biomarkers for these conditions. Their study suggests that these unique profiles could serve as both diagnostic and prognostic tools, although further validation is needed for real-world clinical application.

Eating your way out of pain: How your gut microbiota and diet can help manage chronic discomfort

A recent study in the Nutrients journal employs bibliometrics to explore how nutrition impacts the relationship between gut microbiota and chronic pain. The research highlights the potential of probiotics and prebiotics in managing pain conditions and underscores the need for further studies to understand the interplay between diet, gut health, and chronic pain.

Genetic diversity important for plant survival in changing climate

In a recent study in PNAS, a team of researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology in Jena, Germany, shows that a single mutation that has immediate effects on plant fitness is maintained over the long term in natural plant populations, despite theories predict the contrary.
