Domain Model Explains Propagation Dynamics and Stability of Histone H3K27 and H3K36 Methylation Landscapes [PDF]
Chromatin states must be maintained during cell proliferation to uphold cellular identity and genome integrity. Inheritance of histone modifications is central in this process. However, the histone modification landscape is challenged by incorporation of

PRC2 engages a bivalent H3K27M-H3K27me3 dinucleosome inhibitor [PDF]
Significance A subset of deadly pediatric brain tumors called diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas express a mutant histone H3 with a lysine-to-methionine substitution at position 27 (H3K27M), which has been shown to drive tumorigenesis in these cancers.

Patterns of Failure After Radiation Therapy in Primary Spinal High-Grade Gliomas: A Single Institutional Analysis [PDF]
Background Primary spinal high-grade gliomas (S-HGG) are rare aggressive tumors; radiation therapy (RT) often plays a dominant role in management. We conducted a single-institution retrospective review to study the clinicopathological features and ...
