METTL14 gene polymorphisms decrease Wilms tumor susceptibility in Chinese children

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2021
Background Wilms tumor is a highly heritable malignancy. Aberrant METTL14, a critical component of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase, is involved in carcinogenesis.

SETDB2 Mitigates Podocyte Dysfunction in Diabetic Kidney Disease Through Epigenetic Silencing of SMAD3

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SETDB2 epigenetically represses Smad3 transcription by increasing H3K9me3 enrichment at its promoter, thereby mitigating podocyte dysfunction in DKD. The transcription factor TCF21 binds directly to the Setdb2 promoter and enhances its expression in podocytes. Abstract Podocyte dysfunction represents both an early pathological hallmark and a key driver

miR‐135a‐5p Is a Promising Target to Prevent the Glomerulosclerosis Associated with Podocyte Developmental Toxicity in Offspring Induced by Prenatal Dexamethasone Exposure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) programs persistent podocyte developmental injury and adult glomerulosclerosis. Mechanistically, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binds the miR‐135a‐5p promoter and recruits the histone acetyltransferase p300, increasing promoter histone acetylation and sustaining miR‐135a‐5p expression. Elevated miR‐135a‐5p suppresses

Trop2 and its overexpression in cancers: regulation and clinical/therapeutic implications. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Trop2 is a transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by the Tacstd2 gene. It is an intracellular calcium signal transducer that is differentially expressed in many cancers. It signals cells for self-renewal, proliferation, invasion, and survival.

A Population‐Based Assessment of Cancer Risk in Children With VACTERL

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer risk in children with VACTERL, a nonrandom co‐occurrence of ≥ 3 defects (vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheoesophogeal fistula, renal, and limb), remains unclear. We evaluated this association in a population‐based study. We analyzed data from the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Study, a US registry linkage ...

Adult Wilms tumor: a case of prolonged survival achieved by multimodal treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Wilms tumor is one of the most common malignant neoplasms in children. In the last 2 decades the survival rate of children with this disease has dramatically increased. However, in adults, the guideline for its management is less clear.
