Gene up-regulation by DNA demethylation in 35S-gshI-transgenic poplars (Populus x canescens) [PDF]
Gene expression levels of transgene 35S-gshI (γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase) cloned from E. coli, and the endogenous gene gsh1 of poplar (Populus x canescens) were upregulated by the DNA demethylating agent DHAC (5,6-dihydro-5'-azacytidine ...

Defending the genome from the enemy within:mechanisms of retrotransposon suppression in the mouse germline [PDF]
The viability of any species requires that the genome is kept stable as it is transmitted from generation to generation by the germ cells. One of the challenges to transgenerational genome stability is the potential mutagenic activity of transposable ...

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 ...

Systematic expression analysis of m6A RNA methyltransferases in clear cell renal cell carcinoma
Objectives To investigate the regulation of the N‐6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferases METTL3, METTL14, WTAP, KIAA1429, and METTL4, referred to as “m6A writers,” in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), and other RCC subtypes in respect of the ...

DNMT3B in vitro knocking-down is able to reverse embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma cell phenotype through inhibition of proliferation and induction of myogenic differentiation [PDF]
Aberrant DNA methylation has been frequently observed in many human cancers, including rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children.

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

NF90–NF45 functions as a negative regulator of methyltransferase‐like 3/14 (METTL3/14)‐mediated N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification on primary microRNAs (pri‐miRNAs). NF90–NF45 binds to anti‐oncogenic pri‐miRNAs and inhibits their m6A modification, thereby suppressing the biogenesis of anti‐oncogenic miRNAs.

Competing Methyltransferase Systems
Abstract Large differences between the transfer RNA methyl-transferase capacity of adult organs and their fetal counterparts, as well as between tumor tissues and normal tissues, have been observed. This is in part due to the presence of natural inhibitors of the tRNA methyltransferases in normal adult tissues. An inhibitory system present in the liver,
