Evolution of CpG islands in Primates

open access: yes, 2009
Cette thèse a pour l’objet l’étude des pressions de sélection qui s’appliquent sur les îlots CpG, courtes séquences génomiques qui échappent à la méthylation chez les mammifères.

From scarring to healing: Emerging regenerative therapies for pulmonary fibrosis using MSCs and exosomes

open access: yesClinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
MSCs exert anti‐inflammatory, anti‐fibrotic and regenerative effects in pulmonary fibrosis. MSC‐derived exosomes reproduce many therapeutic benefits of parental MSCs. Preconditioning and genetic modification improve MSC therapeutic performance. Current preclinical and clinical evidence supports the translational potential of MSC‐based therapies ...

Initiation of DNA replication at CpG islands in mammalian chromosomes

open access: yes, 2013
CpG islands are G + C-rich regions ~ 1 kb long that are free of methylation and contain the promoters of many mammalian genes. Analysis of in vivo replication intermediates at three hamster genes and one human gene showed that the CpG island regions, but

Profiling ascidian promoters as the primordial type of vertebrate promoter

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background CpG islands are observed in mammals and other vertebrates, generally escape DNA methylation, and tend to occur in the promoters of widely expressed genes.

Comprehensive Assessment of the KDM2B‐Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorder and the 12q24.31 Microdeletion Syndrome

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 150-164, August 2026.
We set out to characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in the recently delineated KDM2B‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder. We observe a highly penetrant CxxC domain‐related phenotype with distinct facial features supported by GestaltMatcher. In contrast, our findings point to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of loss‐of‐function ...

CpG islands recruit a histone H3 lysine 36 demethylase.

open access: yes, 2010
In higher eukaryotes, up to 70% of genes have high levels of nonmethylated cytosine/guanine base pairs (CpGs) surrounding promoters and gene regulatory units. These features, called CpG islands, were identified over 20 years ago, but there remains little

Eyes Toward the Clinic: Selective Inhibition and Degradation Approaches to Bromodomain‐Containing Proteins

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
The function of bromodomain‐containing proteins in regulating gene transcription is reviewed here, including the development of chemical probes and targeted protein degradation modalities (e.g., PROTACs). This extends to clinical efforts targeting the BET bromodomain‐containing proteins. Challenges of selectivity, future prospects, and the differential
