Epigenomic enhancer profiling defines a signature of colon cancer.
Cancer is characterized by gene expression aberrations. Studies have largely focused on coding sequences and promoters, even though distal regulatory elements play a central role in controlling transcription patterns. We used the histone mark H3K4me1 to analyze gain and loss of enhancer activity genome-wide in primary colon cancer lines relative to normal colon crypts. We identified thousands o...
متن کاملMicroRNA-Mediated Control of Oligodendrocyte Differentiation
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate various biological processes, but evidence for miRNAs that control the differentiation program of specific neural cell types has been elusive. To determine the role of miRNAs in the formation of myelinating oligodendrocytes, we selectively deleted a miRNA-processing enzyme, Dicer1, in oligodendrocyte lineage cells. Mice lacking Dicer1 display severe myelinating defic...
متن کاملModulation of Oligodendrocyte Differentiation by Mechanotransduction
Oligodendrocytes (OLs) are responsible for the myelination of axons in the central nervous system (CNS). The differentiation of OLs encompasses several stages, through which cells undergo dramatic biochemical and morphological changes. OL differentiation is modulated by soluble factors (SFs)-such as growth factors and hormones-, known to be essential for each maturation stage. Besides SFs, inso...
متن کاملNegative regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation by galactosphingolipids.
Galactocerebroside and sulfatide, major galactosphingolipid components of oligodendrocyte plasma membranes and myelin, are first expressed at a critical point, when progenitors cease to proliferate and commence terminal differentiation. We showed previously that an antibody to galactocerebroside/sulfatide arrested terminal differentiation, suggesting a role for these galactolipids in oligodendr...
متن کاملHypoperfusion predicts lesion progression in cerebral X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy.
Magnetic resonance imaging sequences such as diffusion and spectroscopy have been well studied in X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, but no data exist on magnetic resonance perfusion imaging. Since inflammation is known to modulate the microcirculation, we investigated the hypothesis that changes in the local perfusion might be one of the earliest signs of lesion development. Twenty patients with d...
