Loss of TET2 and TET3 in regulatory T cells unleashes effector function

Nature Communications, 2019
Loss of TET proteins in immune cell populations is known to result in immunopathology. Here the authors show that deficiency of Tet2 and Tet3 proteins, specifically in the CD4+ FoxP3+ Treg lineage, results in a dominant pathology in which ex-Treg cells ...

A linear mixed model approach to gene expression-tumor aneuploidy association studies. [PDF]

, 2019
Aneuploidy, defined as abnormal chromosome number or somatic DNA copy number, is a characteristic of many aggressive tumors and is thought to drive tumorigenesis.

Evaluating the Genetic Overlap Between Congenital Heart Disease and Neuroblastoma Risk

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) have elevated neuroblastoma (NB) risk, potentially due to shared neural crest origins. We analyzed rare exonic de novo single‐nucleotide variants in 702 CHD and 454 NB trios from the Neuroblastoma Epidemiology in North America Study, Gabriella Miller Kids First Program, and a published cohort. Seven

RT‐PCR–Based Detection of Bone Marrow Involvement in Ewing Sarcoma: Diagnostic Validity and Prognostic Relevance

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In Ewing sarcoma (EwS), metastases, including those to bone marrow (BM), are the main factors influencing prognosis. Although reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) offers greater sensitivity, the current EWING protocol defines BM metastases solely using light microscopic detection.

M1BP cooperates with CP190 to activate transcription at TAD borders and promote chromatin insulator activity

Nature Communications, 2021
Transcriptional state plays a role in genome organization, however factors that link these processes are not well known. Here, the authors show Drosophila transcription factor Motif 1-binding protein (M1BP) interacts with the insulator protein CP190 to ...

Oncogenic NRAS Mutation in Incipient Sarcomatous Transformation of Cystic Nephroma From a Patient With DICER1‐Related Tumor Predisposition Syndrome

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anaplastic sarcoma of the kidney (ASK) is a DICER1‐associated malignant tumor presumed to arise in a benign precursor, pediatric cystic nephroma (PCN). However, the initial oncogenic alteration(s) associated with malignant transformation are unknown.

Preoperative Cytopenia in Patients Affected by High‐Risk Neuroblastoma: Just a Matter of Platelets?

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims In patients affected by high‐risk neuroblastoma (HR‐NB), complete macroscopic resection (CMR) is associated with better outcomes. These patients are often cytopenic due to intensive induction regimens. The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of preoperative cytopenia on surgical outcome in patients with HR‐NB ...

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Osteosarcoma: Local Control Outcomes With Dosimetric Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Osteosarcoma is a radioresistant tumor that may benefit from stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locoregional control in metastatic/recurrent disease. We report institutional practice patterns, outcomes, toxicity, and failures in osteosarcoma patients treated with SBRT.
