Using Chromatin Architecture to Understand the Genetics and Transcriptomics of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The presence of abnormal gene expression signatures is a well-described feature of the oligoarticular and polyarticular forms of juvenile idiopathic arthritis.

Disparate expression specificities coded by a shared Hox-C enhancer

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Can a single regulatory sequence be shared by two genes undergoing functional divergence? Here we describe a single promiscuous enhancer within the Drosophila Antennapedia Complex, EO053, that directs aspects of the expression of two adjacent genes, pb ...

Dissecting the sharp response of a canonical developmental enhancer reveals multiple sources of cooperativity

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Developmental enhancers integrate graded concentrations of transcription factors (TFs) to create sharp gene expression boundaries. Here we examine the hunchback P2 (HbP2) enhancer which drives a sharp expression pattern in the Drosophila blastoderm ...

Shared enhancer gene regulatory networks between wound and oncogenic programs

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Wound response programs are often activated during neoplastic growth in tumors. In both wound repair and tumor growth, cells respond to acute stress and balance the activation of multiple programs, including apoptosis, proliferation, and cell migration ...

Enhancers, enhancers – from their discovery to today’s universe of transcription enhancers [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Chemistry, 2015
AbstractTranscriptional enhancers are short (200–1500 base pairs) DNA segments that are able to dramatically boost transcription from the promoter of a target gene. Originally discovered in simian virus 40 (SV40), a small DNA virus, transcription enhancers were soon also found in immunoglobulin genes and other cellular genes as key determinants of cell-

FOXD1 is associated with poor outcome and maintains tumor-promoting enhancer–gene programs in basal-like breast cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Breast cancer biology varies markedly among patients. Basal-like breast cancer is one of the most challenging subtypes to treat because it lacks effective therapeutic targets.

Transcriptional and Epigenetic Landscape of Cardiac Pacemaker Cells: Insights Into Cellular Specialization in the Sinoatrial Node

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Cardiac pacemaker cells differentiate and functionally specialize early in embryonic development through activation of critical gene regulatory networks.

Psychopharmaceutical Enhancers: Enhancing Identity? [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroethics, 2009
The use of psychopharmaceuticals to enhance human mental functioning such as cognition and mood has raised a debate on questions regarding identity and authenticity. While some hold that psychopharmaceutical substances can help users to ‘become who they really are’ and thus strengthen their identity and authenticity, others believe that the substances ...

Enhancing Equality

open access: yesThe Journal of Medicine and Philosophy: A Forum for Bioethics and Philosophy of Medicine, 2019
The range of opportunities people enjoy in life largely depends on social, biological, and genetic factors for which individuals are not responsible. Philosophical debates about equality of opportunities have focussed mainly on addressing social determinants of inequalities.

From enhanced coinduction towards enhanced induction [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2022
There exist a rich and well-developed theory of enhancements of the coinduction proof method, widely used on behavioural relations such as bisimilarity. We study how to develop an analogous theory for inductive behaviour relations, i.e., relations defined from inductive observables.
