This week, when the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee considers approving the Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech mRNA Covid-19 vaccines for infants and toddlers, the issue of imprinting may not be on the ...

To put it simply, organisms inherit a copy of each gene from each parent. For a small group of genes, roughly one hundred, a copy from the father or the copy from the mother is the only one expressed.

According to the 2016 Annual Review of Neuroscience, “the brain has emerged as a main target of genomic imprinting, generating great interest in how this epigenetic regulation provides stable ...

Feeding imprinting, considered a survival-enabling process, is not well understood. Infants born very preterm, who first feed passively, are an effective model for studying feeding imprinting.

Researchers developing Australia’s first mRNA Covid vaccine say they may have solved the “immune imprinting” issue that has contributed to the declining effectiveness of boosters as the virus mutates.

Molecularly imprinted biochar offers a highly selective and sustainable way to trap and destroy pollutants in water, soil, ...

Some of our genes can be expressed or silenced depending on whether we inherited them from our mother or our father. The mechanism behind this phenomenon, known as genomic imprinting, is determined by ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Microbiology, researchers conducted a systematic review to understand the occurrence of immune imprinting in the antibody responses of the host to ...
