Altered Histone Modifications in Gliomas
Gliomas are the most frequently occurring primary brain tumors in adults. Although they exist in different malignant stages, including histologically benign forms and highly aggressive states, most gliomas are clinically challenging for neuro-oncologists because of their infiltrative growth patterns and inherent relapse tendency with increased malignancy. Once this disease reaches the glioblast...
متن کاملP-98: Effect of Mouse Embryo Vitrification on Histone Modifications
Background: Vitrification has been usually used as an assisted reproductive technology in animals and humans. This method needs high concentrations of cryoprotectants that can be toxic with high cooling degrees. Then, vitrification could be change histone modifications such as methylation and acetylation can performance as regulatory controls of gene transcription. So, the purpose of the presen...
متن کاملDNA Methylation, Histone Modifications, and Signal Transduction Pathways: A Close Relationship in Malignant Gliomas Pathophysiology
Gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumor. Although tremendous progress has been achieved in the recent years in the diagnosis and treatment, its molecular etiology remains unknown. In this regard, epigenetics represents a new approach to study the mechanisms that control gene expression and function without changing the sequence of the genome. In the present paper we describe the...
متن کاملHistone modifications in Trypanosoma brucei.
Several biological processes in Trypanosoma brucei are affected by chromatin structure, including gene expression, cell cycle regulation, and life-cycle stage differentiation. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other organisms, chromatin structure is dependent upon posttranslational modifications of histones, which have been mapped in detail. The tails of the four core histones of T. brucei are hi...
متن کاملCrosstalk among Histone Modifications
Histone modifications play a complex role in the regulation of transcription. Recent studies (Duncan et al., 2008; Lee et al., 2007; Li et al., 2008) reveal that regulation of histone modifications can be functionally linked to reinforce the activation or repression of gene expression.
