The Department of Biology Sciences at the College of Science, University of Mosul, discussed a doctoral dissertation entitled: Role of miRNA Molecule and DNA Methylation in Regulation of Gene Expression for Circadian Rhythm Genes in Mental Disorders. The dissertation was presented by student Zahra Jassim Ramadan. Her study addressed the role of epigenetic regulation of circadian clock genes, particularly BMAL1, CLOCK, and PER family genes, and their relationship to mental disorders in children. The study aimed to measure the gene expression levels of these genes and demonstrate the effect of miRNA molecules and DNA methylation on their regulation. Advanced molecular and [Read More]
