Unlocking the secrets: the power of methylation-based cfDNA detection of tissue damage in organ systems

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2023
Background Detecting organ and tissue damage is essential for early diagnosis, treatment decisions, and monitoring disease progression. Methylation-based assays offer a promising approach, as DNA methylation patterns can change in response to tissue ...

DNA methylation changes following DNA damage in prostate cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2019
Many cancer therapies operate by inducing double-strand breaks (DSBs) in cancer cells, however treatment-resistant cells rapidly initiate mechanisms to repair damage enabling survival.

PTEN Methylation by NSD2 Controls Cellular Sensitivity to DNA Damage [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Discovery, 2019
The function of PTEN in the cytoplasm largely depends on its lipid-phosphatase activity by antagonizing the PI3K-Akt oncogenic pathway. However, molecular mechanism(s) underlying the role of PTEN in the nucleus remain largely elusive.

MBD4 guards against methylation damage and germ line deficiency predisposes to clonal hematopoiesis and early-onset AML. [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2018
The tendency of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to undergo spontaneous deamination has had a major role in shaping the human genome, and this methylation damage remains the primary source of somatic mutations that accumulate with age.

Oxidative DNA Damage Modulates DNA Methylation Pattern in Human Breast Cancer 1 (BRCA1) Gene via the Crosstalk between DNA Polymerase β and a de novo DNA Methyltransferase

open access: yesCells, 2020
DNA damage and base excision repair (BER) are actively involved in the modulation of DNA methylation and demethylation. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear.

DNMT1-mediated PPARα methylation aggravates damage of retinal tissues in diabetic retinopathy mice

open access: yesBiological Research, 2021
Background Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) is associated with diabetic retinopathy (DR), and the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Aim of this work was to investigate the mechanism of PPARα in DR.

Meta-analyses identify DNA methylation associated with kidney function and damage [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Chronic kidney disease is a major public health burden. Elevated urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio is a measure of kidney damage, and used to diagnose and stage chronic kidney disease.

DNA Damage Repair and DNA Methylation in the Kidney [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Nephrology, 2019
The DNA repair system is essential for the maintenance of genome integrity and is mainly investigated in the areas of aging and cancer. The DNA repair system is strikingly cell-type specific, depending on the expression of DNA repair factors; therefore ...
