The Super Enhancer‐Driven Long Noncoding RNA PRKCQ‐AS1 Promotes Neuroblastoma Tumorigenesis by Interacting With MSI2 Protein and Is Targetable by Small Molecule Compounds

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PRKCQ‐AS1 is overexpressed due to transcriptional super‐enhancers. PRKCQ‐AS1 RNA forms a complex with MSI2 protein to induce BMX mRNA stabilization and overexpression, ERK protein phosphorylation and neuroblastoma cell proliferation. Compound NSC617570 blocks PRKCQ‐AS1 binding to MSI2, leading to BMX mRNA disassociation from MSI2 protein, BMX reduction,

Combined measurement of circulating tumor cell counts and serum tumor marker levels enhances the screening efficiency for malignant versus benign pulmonary nodules

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 13, Issue 23, Page 3393-3401, December 2022., 2022
We aimed to evaluate whether or not the combination measurement of circulating tumor cell counts and serum tumor marker levels can enhance the screening efficiency for malignant versus benign pulmonary nodules. The results show this combination was effective, especially for the early stages of cancer and solitary pulmonary nodules within 2 cm. Abstract

Defining the consequences of endogenous genetic variation within a novel family of Schizosaccharomyces pombe heterochromatin nucleating sequences

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2021
Centromeres are essential for genetic inheritance—they prevent aneuploidy by providing a physical link between DNA and chromosome segregation machinery.

Centromere Biology: Transcription Goes on Stage

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 2018
Accurate chromosome segregation is a fundamental process in cell biology. During mitosis, chromosomes are segregated into daughter cells through interactions between centromeres and microtubules in the mitotic spindle.

Centromere DNA Dynamics: Latent Centromeres and Neocentromere Formation [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Human Genetics, 1997
The centromere is a vital chromosomal structure that provides all living cells with the ability to faithfully partition their genetic material during mitotic and meiotic cell divisions. It functions by holding newly replicated sister chromatids together, allowing the attachment of spindle microtubules, and orchestrating the ordered movement of ...

Sperm‐Derived CircRNA‐1572 Regulates Embryogenesis and Zygotic Genome Activation by Targeting CCNB2 via Bta‐miR‐2478‐L‐2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sperm‐derived circRNA‐1572 competitively binds to bta‐miR‐2478‐L‐2 through a “sponge” mechanism to regulate cyclin B2 (CCNB2) expression, thereby modulating the distribution of fibrous actin (F‐actin) in early pig embryos, ensuring proper chromosome segregation during mitosis, and facilitating normal embryo cleavage and zygotic genome activation.

Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of HER2‐altered non–small cell lung cancer

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 91-104, January 2023., 2023
To improve the diagnosis and treatment of HER2‐altered non‐small cell lung cancer in China, we reached consensus on detection strategy based on alteration type, sample selection, detection method, quality control, and treatment suggestion. Moreover, we systematically reviewed the clinical efficacy, resistance mechanisms, and development status of HER2‐

Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Centromere Drive

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 2018
The asymmetric outcome of female meiosis I, whereby an entire set of chromosomes are discarded into a polar body, presents an opportunity for selfish genetic elements to cheat the process and disproportionately segregate to the egg.

Mitofusin 1 Drives Preimplantation Development by Enhancing Chromatin Incorporation of Histone H3.3

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MFN1 exerts its function partially through histone H3.3 in early embryos. MFN1 colocalizes with PADI6, and its deficiency results in compromised cytoplasmic lattices and ribosomal subunits, leading to declined H3.3 protein level. This, in turn, hinders the incorporation of H3.3 into the embryonic genome, thereby causing failure of male pronucleus ...

Integrity of the human centromere DNA repeats is protected by CENP-A, CENP-C, and CENP-T

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance The centromere is a highly specialized genomic locus playing a critical role in chromosome segregation during cell division and is made of characteristic repetitive DNA sequences.
