Genome-wide identification of methylated CpG sites in nongenital cutaneous warts [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2020
AbstractBackgroundLow-risk HPV infection has not been the subject of epigenetic investigation. The present study was carried out in order to investigate the methylation status of CpG sites in non-genital cutaneous warts.MethodsGenomic DNA was extracted from 24 paired epidermal samples of warts and normal skin.

Volumetric Analysis of Glioblastoma for Determining Which CpG Sites Should Be Tested by Pyrosequencing to Predict Temozolomide Efficacy

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
The aim of the present study was to determine which individual or combined CpG sites among O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase CpG 74–89 in glioblastoma mainly affects the response to temozolomide resulting from CpG methylation using statistical ...

Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) enhances photodimer formation at methyl-CpG sites but suppresses dimer deamination [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2010
Spontaneous deamination of cytosine to uracil in DNA is a ubiquitous source of C→T mutations, but occurs with a half life of ∼50 000 years. In contrast, cytosine within sunlight induced cyclobutane dipyrimidine dimers (CPD's), deaminate within hours to days.

Comparison of sequencing-based methods to profile DNA methylation and identification of monoallelic epigenetic modifications. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Analysis of DNA methylation patterns relies increasingly on sequencing-based profiling methods. The four most frequently used sequencing-based technologies are the bisulfite-based methods MethylC-seq and reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS),

DNA methylation at individual CpG-sites of EPB41L3, HTERT and FAM19A4 are useful for detection of cervical high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) or worse: Analysis of individual CpG-sites outperforms averaging

open access: yesTumour Virus Research
Global methylation analysis of gene promoters is promising for detection of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions or worse (HSIL+) in high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV)-positive women.

Directed evolution of improved zinc finger methyltransferases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The ability to target DNA methylation toward a single, user-designated CpG site in vivo may have wide applicability for basic biological and biomedical research.

T cell infiltration on local CpG-B delivery in early-stage melanoma is predominantly related to CLEC9A+CD141+ cDC1 and CD14+ antigen-presenting cell recruitment

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2021
Background We previously reported CpG-B injection at the primary tumor excision site prior to re-excision and sentinel node biopsy to result in immune activation of the sentinel lymph node (SLN), increased melanoma-specific CD8+ T cell rates in ...

Maternal corticotropin-releasing hormone is associated with LEP DNA methylation at birth and in childhood: an epigenome-wide study in Project Viva [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundCorticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) plays a central role in regulating the secretion of cortisol which controls a wide range of biological processes. Fetuses overexposed to cortisol have increased risks of disease in later life.

Epigenetic age-predictor for mice based on three CpG sites

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Epigenetic clocks for mice were generated based on deep-sequencing analysis of the methylome. Here, we demonstrate that site-specific analysis of DNA methylation levels by pyrosequencing at only three CG dinucleotides (CpGs) in the genes Prima1 , Hsf4 ,

Methylation levels of the TNFA gene are different between Graves’ and Hashimoto’s diseases and influenced by the TNFA polymorphism

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2018
Graves’ disease (GD) and Hashimoto’s disease (HD) are different pathological types of autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs). However, the epigenetic differences between these diseases have not been elucidated.
