Epigenetic and antitumor effects of platinum(IV)-octanoato conjugates [PDF]
We present the anticancer properties of cis, cis, trans-[Pt(IV)(NH3)2Cl2(OA)2] [Pt(IV)diOA] (OA = octanoato), Pt(IV) derivative of cisplatin containing two OA units appended to the axial positions of a six-coordinate Pt(IV) center.

No SMAD4 hypermethylation in colorectal cancer [PDF]
The chromosome region 18q21 is frequently deleted in colorectal cancers. Three candidate tumour suppressor genes, DCC, SMAD4 and SMAD2, map to this region. The SMAD4(DPC4) gene was recently identified as a candidate pancreatic cancer suppressor gene. It is also a gene for juvenile polyposis tumour predisposition syndrome.

Salivary Biomarkers for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Diagnosis and Follow-Up: Current Status and Perspectives [PDF]
Oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer type in the world, and 90% of it is represented by oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Despite progress in preventive and therapeutic strategies, delay in OSCC diagnosis remains one of the major causes of high

Functional Analysis of in Vivo and in Organello Footprinting of HeLa Cell Mitochondrial DNA in Relationship to ATP and Ethidium Bromide Effects on Transcription [PDF]
In vivo and in organello footprinting techniques based on methylation interference have been utilized to investigate protein-DNA interactions in the transcription initiation and rDNA transcription termination regions of human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in

Epigenetic Modulation Directs Recovery Post LASIK and SMILE Surgery: An Experimental Study
Purpose: refractive surgery, such as LASIK and SMILE, induces a wound healing response that leads to significant corneal stromal remodeling. We have shown that the protein profile in the stroma changes dramatically immediately post-surgery.

Exaggerated CpH methylation in the autism-affected brain. [PDF]
BackgroundThe etiology of autism, a complex, heritable, neurodevelopmental disorder, remains largely unexplained. Given the unexplained risk and recent evidence supporting a role for epigenetic mechanisms in the development of autism, we explored the ...

AZT‐induced hypermethylation of human thymidine kinase gene in the absence of total DNA hypermethylation [PDF]
Genome‐wide DNA hypermethylation induced by 3′‐azido‐3′‐deoxythymidine (AZT) has been suggested to be involved in the development of AZT resistance. We used a CD4 T‐lymphoblastoid CEM line and its AZT‐resistant MT500 variant with reduced thymidine kinase activity.
