From Marginal to Central: Marginal Zone‐like B Cells as Critical Targets in Cladribine‐Treated Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease where B cells play a central pathogenic role. Cladribine, an oral therapy, provides durable benefits by reshaping lymphocyte populations, yet its specific long‐term impact on distinct B‐cell subsets is not fully understood.

Genomic distribution of methylated and unmethylated CpG islands.

open access: yes, 2013
We subdivided CpG islands into methylated and unmethylated islands and then categorized them into different bins according to their sizes. A. Genomic distribution of methylated CpG islands. B. Genomic distribution of unmethylated CpG islands.

CpG Islands Detector: a Window-based CpG Island Search Tool [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2010
Abstract CpG is the pair of nucleotides C and G, appearing suc-cessively, in this order, along one DNA strand. It is known that due to biochemical considerations CpG is relatively rare in most DNA sequences. However, in par-ticular subsequences, which are a few hundred to a few thousand nucleotides long, the couple CpG is more frequent.

Peripheral blood DNA methylation changes precede lymphoma diagnosis in primary Sjögren's disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives Primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of lymphoma. The molecular mechanisms underlying lymphomagenesis remain poorly understood, and sensitive biomarkers for early identification of high‐risk patients are lacking.

An evaluation of new criteria for CpG islands in the human genome as gene markers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Motivation: Recently, more stringent criteria for CpG islands have been introduced to exclude Alu repeats, thereby enabling a higher proportion of CpG islands associating with genes to be identified.

Genome-scale computational analysis of DNA curvature and repeats in Arabidopsis and rice uncovers plant-specific genomic properties

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background Due to its overarching role in genome function, sequence-dependent DNA curvature continues to attract great attention. The DNA double helix is not a rigid cylinder, but presents both curvature and flexibility in different regions, depending on

Predicting aberrant CpG island methylation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003
Epigenetic silencing associated with aberrant methylation of promoter region CpG islands is one mechanism leading to loss of tumor suppressor function in human cancer. Profiling of CpG island methylation indicates that some genes are more frequently methylated than others, and that each tumor type is associated with a unique set of ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Schematic structures of five candidate genes with six CpG islands.

open access: yes, 2015
Five candidate genes with six CpG islands were chosen for bisulphite sequencing: Vomeronasal type 2 receptor 64 (Vmn2r64, 2 CpG islands (1 and 2), Olfactory receptor genes 110 (Olfr110) and 601 (Olfr601), Pre-B lymphocyte gene 2 (Vpreb2), and Histone ...

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 ...
