Complex landscape of somatic copy number alterations in head and neck paragangliomas

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundCopy number alterations (CNAs) drive cancer by amplifying oncogenes and deleting tumor suppressor genes. Although CNA patterns are well-studied in common cancers, they remain poorly characterized in rare tumors.MethodsIn this study, we employed

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Identification of Methylated Genes Associated with Aggressive Clinicopathological Features in Mantle Cell Lymphoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is genetically characterized by the t(11;14)(q13;q32) translocation and a high number of secondary chromosomal alterations. The contribution of DNA methylation to MCL lymphomagenesis is not well known.

High levels of circulating folate concentrations are associated with DNA methylation of tumor suppressor and repair genes p16, MLH1, and MGMT in elderly Chileans

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2017
Background Changes in DNA methylation, one of the most studied epigenetic mechanisms, are considered an initial marker for early cancer detection.

In vivo genome‐editing screen identifies tumor suppressor genes that cooperate with Trp53 loss during mammary tumorigenesis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2022
Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that comprises multiple histological and molecular subtypes. To gain insight into mutations that drive breast tumorigenesis, we describe a pipeline for the identification and validation of tumor suppressor genes ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Functional genomics of brain development and developmentally related brain disease in "Drosophila" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
One of the fundamental challenges in basic neuroscience is to understand the molecular genetic networks associated with building the brain. As malfunction in these genetic pathways can lead to disorders like cancer, brain development is also a crucial ...

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Crosstalk between c-Jun and TAp73alpha/beta contributes to the apoptosis–survival balance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The p53-family member p73 plays a role in various cellular signaling pathways during development and growth control and it can have tumor suppressor properties. Several isoforms of p73 exist with considerable differences in their function.
