The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology—the policy voice of biological and biomedical researchers
About us
Founded in 1912, the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) was originally created by three independent scientific organizations to provide a forum in which to hold educational meetings, develop publications, and disseminate biological research results. What started as a small group of dedicated scientists has grown to be the nation’s largest coalition of biomedical researchers, representing 22 scientific societies and over 110,000 researchers from around the world. FASEB is now recognized as the voice of advocacy for biological and biomedical research scientists. FASEB's Mission Advance health and welfare by promoting progress and education in biological and biomedical sciences through service to our member societies and collaborative advocacy. FASEB Quick Facts * Website: www.faseb.org * Celebrated 100 years of service to the life sciences community in 2012 * 22 scientific societies / more than 110,000 researchers worldwide * Manages many scientific meetings, conferences, and exhibits each year * Publishes The FASEB Journal and FASEB BioAdvances * Provides career resources through job/resume postings, networking, and educational seminars

Recent research published in The #FASEBJournal reveals that transcriptional changes in liver metabolism might occur independently of DNA methylation. This study from UNSW Medicine & Health, which focuses on Dnmt3a/3b mutant mice, challenges the long-held belief that DNA methylation is essential for these changes, offering fresh insights into liver disease mechanisms. Key findings include: ➡️ Independence from DNA Methylation: Widespread loss of methylation in the mutant mice did not disrupt homeostatic transcriptional regulation. ➡️ Metabolic Impact: Despite the genetic alterations, these mice displayed improved glucose tolerance, particularly on a high-fat diet, suggesting new avenues for understanding glucose and fat metabolism.

Heat stress is a growing challenge for sustainable food production. This new research in #FASEBBioAdvances demonstrates how CRISPR/Cas9 technology can be used to enhance thermotolerance in cattle by introducing beneficial mutations in the prolactin receptor (PRLR) gene. These gene-edited cattle exhibited improved temperature regulation and growth characteristics, with no negative impacts on reproductive or carcass traits. This study provides valuable insights into how gene editing can contribute to improving livestock resilience, ultimately supporting more efficient and humane food production. 🔗 Read the full article: https://hubs.ly/Q02LqKwR0 #GeneEditing #CRISPR #Livestock #GlobalWarming #OpenAccess

Cells are constantly influenced by mechanical forces, but how do these forces impact gene expression? A new review in the The #FASEBJournal takes a deep dive into the role of histone acetylation in mechanosensing and transduction. The article explores the complex interactions between mechanical cues and epigenetic modifications, focusing on the regulators of histone acetylation and their efforts on cellular behavior. For researchers interested in the intersection of epigenetics and mechanobiology, this comprehensive review offers valuable insights into how cells translate physical stimuli into changes in gene expression.
