The levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p21 are low in S phase and insufficient to inhibit CDKs. We show here that endogenous p21, instead of being residual, it is functional and necessary to preserve the genomic stability of unstressed cells. p21depletion slows down nascent DNA elongation, triggers permanent replication defects and promotes the instability of hard-to-replicat...
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is an autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the ataxin-7 gene. In humans, SCA7 is characterized by marked anticipation due to intergenerational repeat instability with a bias toward expansion, and is thus regarded as the most unstable of the polyglutamine diseases. To study the molecular basis of CAG/CTG repeat instability ...
PURPOSE Genomic instability plays a major role in the genesis and progression of tumors, and in the evolution of tumor heterogeneity. To determine the role of genomic instability in the genesis and progression of oral cancer, we assessed the extent of genomic alterations in oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We used the recently developed inter-(simple sequence repeat)...
DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1)-deficient mice are tumor-prone, and this has been proposed to result from the induction of genomic instability. To address whether loss of DNMT1, or the related protein DNMT3b, results in genomic instability in human cancer cells, we used a near-diploid human colorectal cancer cell line, HCT116, in which one or both DNMT genes were disrupted by homologous recombi...
We report the functional and temporal relationship between cellular phenotypes such as oxidative stress, p38MAPK-dependent responses and genomic instability persisting in the progeny of cells exposed to sparsely ionizing low-Linear Energy Transfer (LET) radiation such as X-rays or high-charge and high-energy (HZE) particle high-LET radiation such as (56)Fe ions. We found that exposure to low an...
Genomic instability is a hallmark of cancer often associated with poor patient outcome and resistance to targeted therapy. Assessment of genomic instability in bulk tumor or biopsy can be complicated due to sample availability, surrounding tissue contamination, or tumor heterogeneity. The Epic Sciences circulating tumor cell (CTC) platform utilizes a non-enrichment based approach for the detect...
An unstable genome is a hallmark feature of nearly all solid tumors and adult-onset leukemias; this instability first appears early in tumor progression, and can take several forms. While the source of instability has been established for many human family cancer syndromes to reside in inherited defects in genes relating to DNA repair, the genes generating genomic instability in sporadic cancer...
Current models suggest that genomic instability is crucial in the accumulation of the multiple alterations required for tumorigenesis. However, the nature of the initial damage responsible for the origin of genomic instability remains poorly understood. In this investigation we demonstrate that the nucleotide analog 2,6-diaminopurine (DAP) can be used to induce highly focused damage to the larg...
BACKGROUND The BRAF(V600E) mutation is the most common genetic alteration in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs). Transgenic mice overexpressing BRAF(V600E) in their thyroids under control of the thyroglobulin promoter (Tg-BRAF2 mice) developed invasive PTCs with high penetrance. However, these mice showed elevated thyrotropin (TSH) levels, which also stimulate the proliferation of thyrocytes a...
The human genome demonstrates variable levels of instability during ontogeny. Achieving the highest rate during early prenatal development, it decreases significantly throughout following ontogenetic stages. A failure to decrease or a spontaneous increase of genomic instability can promote infertility, pregnancy losses, chromosomal and genomic diseases, cancer, immunodeficiency, or brain diseas...
