A high resolution map of segmental DNA copy number variation in the mouse genome

PLoS Genetics, 2005
Submicroscopic (less than 2 Mb) segmental DNA copy number changes are a recently recognized source of genetic variability between individuals. The biological consequences of copy number variants (CNVs) are largely undefined. In some cases, CNVs that cause gene dosage effects have been implicated in phenotypic variation.

Abundant β-Defensin Copy Number Variations in Pigs [PDF]

Background/Objectives: β-defensins are a family of classical endogenous antimicrobial peptides involved in innate immune response. β-defensins are encoded by a large number of loci and known to show extensive copy number variations (CNVs) that ...

Maternal age effect and severe germ-line bottleneck in the inheritance of human mitochondrial DNA [PDF]

, 2014
The manifestation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diseases depends on the frequency of heteroplasmy (the presence of several alleles in an individual), yet its transmission across generations cannot be readily predicted owing to a lack of data on the size ...

mtDNA copy number/miR663/AATF axis in invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast [PDF]

BioImpacts
Introduction: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number variations have been reported in multiple human cancers. Previous studies indicate that mitochondrial retrograde signaling regulates miR663, which plays a key role in tumorigenesis, including regulating

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Advances of nanopore direct sequencing technology and bioinformatics analysis for cell-free DNA detection and its clinical applications in cancer liquid biopsy

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) containing cancer information has become a key biomarker for cancer liquid biopsy. Current next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology for cfDNA detection often fail to capture multiomics information, such as fragmentomics ...

Absolute measurement of gene transcripts with Selfie-digital PCR

Scientific Reports, 2017
Absolute measurement of the number of RNA transcripts per gene is necessary to compare gene transcription among different tissues or experimental conditions and to assess transcription of genes that have a variable copy number per cell such as ...

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Variation of DNA copies number in etiology of congenital heart defects

Russian Journal of Cardiology, 2018
Past decade, there is a remarkable evidence of that the variation of DNA copies number (copy number variation, CNV) is related with onset of inborn heart defects (IHD). The review is focused on an impact of CNV in IHD development. Attention is paid on widely known variations, as the microdeletions of 22q 11 chromosome region, as the novel unique ...

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...
