Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA
Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

Hydroxyurea differentially modulates activator and repressors of γ-globin gene in erythroblasts of responsive and non-responsive patients with sickle cell disease in correlation with Index of Hydroxyurea Responsiveness [PDF]
Hydroxyurea (HU), the first of two drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treating patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), produces anti-sickling effect by re-activating fetal γ-globin gene to enhance production of fetal hemoglobin ...

ABSTRACT Background The level of measurable residual disease (MRD) is one of the most important features correlating depths of response and long‐term outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM) and MRD evaluation is currently the gold standard tool for assessing treatment response.

Nuclear envelope membrane proteins (NEMPs) are a conserved family of nuclear envelope (NE) proteins that reside within the inner nuclear membrane (INM). Even though Nemp1 knockout (KO) mice are overtly normal, they display a pronounced splenomegaly. This

HSCB, a co-chaperone in mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis, is a novel candidate gene for congenital sideroblastic anemia [PDF]
Congenital sideroblastic anemias (CSA) are inherited diseases resulting from defects in heme biosynthesis, mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) assembly, or mitochondrial translation.

Studies on the DNA metabolism of erythroid cell. I. DNA level of erythroblastic nuclei of rabbit bone marrow, observation of normal, blood depleted, and phenylhydrazine anemias, and their recovery by red cell transfusion [PDF]
For the purpose to reveal the changes in the metabolism of erythroblast in varied specialization stages the author observed the Feulgen DNA level of rabbit erythroblasts by microspectrophotometry.

Studies on erythropoiesis 1. Studies on cell size of erythroid cells from anemic animal [PDF]
For the purpose to look into the regulatory mechanism of erythropoiesis, changes in the cell volume and the cell size of the erythroid cells have been observed in peripheral blood and marrow from normal and phenylhydrazine induced anemic rabbits. And the

Abstract TP53 mutations are found in over 50% of tumor types, including myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). MPNs are characterized by a chronic phase, which may progress to secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML). Here, we discuss the physiological functions of p53 in hematopoiesis and its deregulation in MPNs.

Introduction and Expression of a Rabbit β-globin Gene in Mouse Fibroblasts [PDF]
The cloned chromosomal rabbit ß-globin gene has been introduced into mouse fibroblasts by DNA-mediated gene transfer (transformation). In this report, we examine the expression of the rabbit gene in six independent transformants that contain from 1 to 20
