Epigenetic silencing and pharmacological inhibition of EIF5A2 foster venetoclax sensitivity in acute myeloid leukaemia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
We show how the loss of activity of the translation initiation factor EIF5A2—either through gene hypermethylation or pharmacologic inhibition of its highly specific hypusine post‐translational modification—induces venetoclax sensitivity in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells.

Ornithine decarboxylase antizyme induces hypomethylation of genome DNA and histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) in human oral cancer cell line.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundMethylation of CpG islands of genome DNA and lysine residues of histone H3 and H4 tails regulates gene transcription. Inhibition of polyamine synthesis by ornithine decarboxylase antizyme-1 (OAZ) in human oral cancer cell line resulted in ...

Methylation status of Vitamin D receptor gene promoter in benign and malignant adrenal tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We previously showed a decreased expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR) mRNA/protein in a small group of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) tissues, suggesting the loss of a protective role of VDR against malignant cell growth in this cancer type ...

Factors to preserve CpG-rich sequences in methylated CpG islands [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2015
Mammalian CpG islands (CGIs) normally escape DNA methylation in all adult tissues and developmental stages. However, in our previous study we unexpectedly identified many methylated CGIs in human peripheral blood leukocytes. Methylated CpG dinucleotides convert to TpG dinucleotides through deaminization of their cytosine bases more frequently than ...

Tau‐targeting active immunotherapy slows progression and reduces pathology in mouse models of tauopathy

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
The efficacy of the novel anti‐tau active immunotherapy, p5555kb, was tested using two mouse models of tau pathology. p5555kb inoculation increased the survival rate and reduced tau pathology in tau‐overexpressing P301L mice and decreased tau seeding in the brains of C57BL/6 mice injected with human‐purified Alzheimer's disease tau.

Diversity of core promoter elements comprising human bidirectional promoters

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background Bidirectional promoters lie between adjacent genes, which are transcribed from opposite strands of DNA. The functional mechanisms underlying the activation of bidirectional promoters are currently uncharacterised.

In silico enhanced restriction enzyme based methylation analysis of the human glioblastoma genome using Agilent 244K CpG Island microarrays

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2010
Genome wide methylation profiling of gliomas is likely to provide important clues to improving treatment outcomes. Restriction enzyme based approaches have been widely utilized for methylation profiling of cancer genomes and will continue to have ...

Methylation of the Gpat2 promoter regulates transient expression during mouse spermatogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Spermatogenesis is a highly regulated process that involves both mitotic and meiotic divisions, as well as cellular differentiation to yield mature spermatozoa from undifferentiated germinal stem cells.

Integrated high‐resolution copy number and histomolecular analysis of diffuse hemispheric glioma, H3 G34‐mutant reveals universal TP53 abnormalities

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
This integrated high‐resolution copy number and histomolecular analysis of diffuse hemispheric glioma, H3 G34‐mutant expands the spectrum of associated genetic changes and underscores the presence of universal TP53 abnormalities at copy number, sequence, and protein expression level, with frequent yet largely unrecognized TP53 copy‐neutral loss of ...

Early‐Onset Digestive System Cancers: Risk Factors and Clinicopathological and Molecular Features Across Organ Sites

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Shared risk factors, clinical features, and tumor characteristics across multiple early‐onset cancer types are shown in this Graphical Abstract. Integrative approaches combining molecular pathology, oncology, and population sciences offer opportunities to clarify underlying mechanisms and help us develop preventive strategies for early‐onset cancers ...
