SNORA49 negatively regulates self-renewal of liver cancer stem cells and hepatocarcinogenesis via suppressing SOX9 transcription

Nature Communications
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play a critical role in tumor initiation, progression, and recurrence. How liver CSCs initiate their self-renewal remains elusive.

Genome-wide investigation of VNTR motif polymorphisms in 8,222 genomes: Implications for biological regulation and human traits

Cell Genomics
Summary: Variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) is a pervasive and highly mutable genetic feature that varies in both length and repeat sequence. Despite the well-studied copy-number variants, the functional impacts of repeat motif polymorphisms remain ...

The epigenetic regulator Cfp1

bmc, 2010
Abstract Numerous epigenetic modifications have been identified and correlated with transcriptionally active euchromatin or repressed heterochromatin and many enzymes responsible for the addition and removal of these marks have been characterized.

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Epigenetic dynamics of imprinted X inactivation during early mouse development [PDF]

, 2003
The initiation of X-chromosome inactivation is thought to be tightly correlated with early differentiation events during mouse development. Here, we show that although initially active, the paternal X chromosome undergoes imprinted inactivation from the ...

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...

Electricity network regulation in the EU : The challenges ahead‎ for transmission and distribution

, 2018
The UK model of incentive regulation of power grids was at one time the most advanced, and elements of it were adopted throughout the EU. This model worked well, particularly in the context of limited investment and innovation, a single and strong ...

Epigenetic epidemiology and alterations in type 2 diabetes and obesity

, 2022
ype 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity are multifactorial and polygenic metabolic diseases. Combinations of genetic and non-genetic risk factors such as risk SNPs, age, unhealthy diets, and physical inactivity increase the risk for these diseases.

New Insights into X-Chromosome Reactivation during Reprogramming to Pluripotency

Cells, 2020
Dosage compensation between the sexes results in one X chromosome being inactivated during female mammalian development. Chromosome-wide transcriptional silencing from the inactive X chromosome (Xi) in mammalian cells is erased in a process termed X ...

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.
