Frequent alterations and epigenetic silencing of differentiation pathway genes in structurally rearranged liposarcomas.
UNLABELLED We explored diverse alterations contributing to liposarcomagenesis by sequencing the genome, exome, transcriptome, and cytosine methylome of a primary and recurrent dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DLPS) from distinct chemotherapy/radiotherapy-naïve patients. The liposarcoma genomes had complex structural rearrangements, but in different patterns, and with varied effects on the structur...
متن کاملConcordant epigenetic silencing of transforming growth factor-beta signaling pathway genes occurs early in breast carcinogenesis.
Human mammary epithelial cells (HMEC) grown under standard cell culture conditions enter a growth phase referred to as selection, but a subpopulation is able to escape from arrest and continue to proliferate. These cells, called post-selection or variant HMECs, may be derived from progenitor cells found in normal mammary epithelium that subsequently acquire premalignant lesions, including p16(I...
متن کاملInterferon regulatory factors IRF5 and IRF7 inhibit growth and induce senescence in immortal Li-Fraumeni fibroblasts.
Cellular immortalization is one of the prerequisite steps in carcinogenesis. By gene expression profiling, we have found that genes in the interferon (IFN) pathway were dysregulated during the spontaneous cellular immortalization of fibroblasts from Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) patients with germ-line mutations in p53. IFN signaling pathway genes were down-regulated by epigenetic silencing during...
متن کاملEpigenetic Silencing of Plasmodium falciparum Genes Linked to Erythrocyte Invasion
The process of erythrocyte invasion by merozoites of Plasmodium falciparum involves multiple steps, including the formation of a moving junction between parasite and host cell, and it is characterised by the redundancy of many of the receptor-ligand interactions involved. Several parasite proteins that interact with erythrocyte receptors or participate in other steps of invasion are encoded by ...
متن کاملEpigenetic Silencing of Nucleolar rRNA Genes in Alzheimer's Disease
BACKGROUND Ribosomal deficits are documented in mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which often represents an early stage Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as in advanced AD. The nucleolar rRNA genes (rDNA), transcription of which is critical for ribosomal biogenesis, are regulated by epigenetic silencing including promoter CpG methylation. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS To assess whether CpG me...
