ADVANCEMENTS AND CHALLENGES OF MODERN BREEDING OVER CONVENTIONAL BREEDING
Abstract: Plant breeding dates back thousands of years, when people first deliberately bred plants based on visually pleasing characteristics. The domestication of wild plants aided this process, resulting in the evolution of numerous breeding strategies over time. Conventional breeding, which is distinguished by selective breeding based on superior performance, used procedures such as pure-line selections, mass selection, backcross breeding, recurrent selection, and hybridization. While effective, classical breeding procedures were time-consuming and …

HPV and Cardiovascular Risk: Unpacking a Novel Link Between Viral Infection and Heart Disease
Abstract: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is best known for its oncogenic potential, yet a growing body of evidence suggests that persistent HPV infection may also contribute to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In 2025, pooled analyses and conference reports galvanized attention by estimating that HPV‐positive individuals have ~40% higher risk of CVD and approximately double the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) compared with HPV‐negative peers, even after adjustment for traditional risk factors. These …

Epigenetic Modifications in Health, Disease, and Precision Therapeutics (From Genome to Epigenome)
Abstract: Introduction: Epigenetic alterations play a crucial role in regulating gene expression in both normal physiological and disease states. These reversible modifications—such as DNA methylation, histone acetylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and chromatin remodelling—are increasingly implicated in complex diseases including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Despite advances in standard therapeutic approaches, patient responses remain variable, largely due to genetic heterogeneity and epigenetic dysregulation. This highlights the need for incorporating epigenetic understanding into personalized medicine. …
