Journal Title：Epigenetics

Epigenetics publishes peer-reviewed original research and review articles that provide an unprecedented forum where epigenetic mechanisms and their role in diverse biological processes can be revealed, shared, and discussed.

Epigenetics research studies heritable changes in gene expression caused by mechanisms others than the modification of the DNA sequence. Epigenetics therefore plays critical roles in a variety of biological systems, diseases, and disciplines. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

DNA methylation

Nucleosome positioning and modification

Gene silencing

Imprinting

Nuclear reprogramming

Chromatin remodeling

Non-coding RNA

Non-histone chromosomal elements

Dosage compensation

Nuclear organization

Epigenetic therapy and diagnostics

Nutrition and environmental epigenetics

Cancer epigenetics

Neuroepigenetics

Epigenetics 发表经过同行评审的原创研究和评论文章，提供了一个前所未有的论坛，可以揭示、分享和讨论表观遗传机制及其在不同生物过程中的作用。

表观遗传学研究研究由除 DNA 序列修饰以外的机制引起的基因表达的可遗传变化。因此，表观遗传学在各种生物系统、疾病和学科中发挥着关键作用。感兴趣的主题包括（但不限于）：

DNA甲基化

核小体定位与修饰

基因沉默

印记

核重编程

染色质重塑

非编码RNA

非组蛋白染色体成分

剂量补偿

核组织

表观遗传治疗和诊断

营养与环境表观遗传学

癌症表观遗传学

神经表观遗传学
