A multiple-case breast cancer family exome-sequencing study identifi ed three likely pathogenic mutations in RINT1 (NM_021930.4) not present in public sequencing data- bases: RINT1 c.343C>T (p.Q115X), c.1132_1134del (p.M378del), and c.1207G>T (p.D403Y). On the basis of this fi nding, a population-based case–control mutation-screening study was conducted that identifi ed 29 carriers of rare (minor allele frequency < 0.5%), likely pathogenic variants: 23 in 1,313 early-onset breast cancer cases and six in 1,123 frequency-matched controls [OR, 3.24; 95% confi - dence interval (CI), 1.29–8.17; P = 0.013]. RINT1 mutation screening of probands from 798 multiple- case breast cancer families identifi ed four additional carriers of rare genetic variants. Analysis of the incidence of fi rst primary cancers in families of women carrying RINT1 mutations estimated that car- riers were at increased risk of Lynch syndrome–spectrum cancers [standardized incidence ratio (SIR), 3.35; 95% CI, 1.7–6.0; P = 0.005], particularly for relatives diagnosed with cancer under the age of 60 years (SIR, 10.9; 95% CI, 4.7–21; P = 0.0003). SIGNIFICANCE: The work described in this study adds RINT1 to the growing list of genes in which rare sequence variants are associated with intermediate levels of breast cancer risk. Given that RINT1 is also associated with a spectrum of cancers with mismatch repair defects, these fi ndings have clinical applications and raise interesting biological questions.

However, the molecular link mediating ER and LD cross talk remains elusive. Here, we identi- fied Rab18 as an important Rab guanosine triphosphatase in controlling LD growth and maturation.Rab18 deficiency resulted in a drastically reduced number of mature LDs and decreased lipid storage, and was accompanied by increased ER stress. Rab3GAP1/2, the GEF of Rab18, promoted LD growth by activating and targeting Rab18 to LDs. LD-associated Rab18 bound specifically to the ER-associated NAG-RINT1-ZW10 (NRZ) tethering complex and their associated SNAREs (Syntaxin18, Use1, BNIP1), resulting in the recruitment of ER to LD and the formation of direct ER–LD contact. Cells with defects in the NRZ/SNA RE complex function showed reduced LD growth and lipid storage.

BKPyV infection is ubiquitous in the 28 human population, with over 80% of adults worldwide being seropositive for BKPyV. BKPyV infection is 29 usually asymptomatic; however, BKPyV reactivation in immunosuppressed transplant patients causes 30 two diseases, polyomavirus-associated nephropathy and hemorrhagic cystitis.

  • The FEM R Package: Identification of Functional Epigenetic Modules
    The FEM R package: Identification of Functional Epigenetic Modules Yinming Jiao and Andrew E. Teschendorff April 24, 2017 1 Summary This vignette provides examples of how to use the package FEM to identify interactome hotspots of differential promoter methylation and differential ex- pression, where an inverse association between promoter methylation and gene expression is assumed [1]. By \interactome hotspot" we mean a connected sub- network of the protein interaction network (PIN) with an exceptionally large average edge-weight density in relation to the rest of the network. The weight edges are constructed from the statistics of association of DNA methylation and gene expression with the phenotype of interest. Thus, the FEM algorithm can be viewed as a functional supervised algorithm, which uses a network of relations between genes (in our case a PPI network), to identify subnetworks where a significant number of genes are associated with a phenotype of interest (POI). We call these \hotspots" also Functional Epigenetic Modules (FEMs). Current functionality of FEM works for Illumina Infinium 450k data, how- ever, the structure is modular allowing easy application or generalization to DNA methylation data generated with other technologies. The FEM algorithm on Illumina 27k data was first presented in [2], with its extension to Illumina 450k data described in [1]. The module detection algorithm used is the spin- glass algorithm of [3]. The PIN used in this vignette includes only protein- protein interactions, derives from Pathway Commons [4] and is available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/funepimod/files under filename hprdAsigH*.Rd, but the user is allowed to specify his own network.

Commercial multigene testing panels include up to 13 different genes annotated for germline DNA testing of patients with endometrial cancer. Many other genes have been reported as relevant to familial endometrial cancer from directed genome-wide sequencing studies or multigene panel testing, or research. This review assesses the evidence supporting association with endometrial cancer risk for 32 genes implicated in hereditary endometrial cancer, and presents a summary of rare germline variants in these 32 genes detected by analysis of quasi-population-based endometrial cancer patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas project. This comprehensive investigation has led to the conclusion that convincing evidence currently exists to support clinical testing of only six of these genes for diagnosis of hereditary endometrial cancer. Testing of endometrial cancer patients for the remaining genes should be considered in the context of research studies, as a means to better establish the level of endometrial cancer risk, if any, associated with genetic variants that are deleterious to gene or protein function.

Supplementary Issue: Computer Simulation, Bioinformatics, and Statistical Analysis of Cancer Data and Processes (A) ABSTR ACT: Heterogeneous DNA methylation patterns are linked to tumor growth. In order to study DNA methylation heterogeneity patterns for breast cancer cell lines, we comparatively study four metrics: variance, I2 statistic, entropy, and methylation state. Using the categorical metric methylation state, we select the two most heterogeneous states to identify genes that directly affect tumor suppressor genes and high- or moderate-risk breast cancer genes. Utilizing the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis software and the ConsensusPath Database visualization tool, we generate integrated gene networks to study biological relations of heterogeneous genes.

Genetic networks provide new mechanistic insights into the diversity of species morphology. In this study, we have integrated the MGI, GEO, and miRNA database to analyze the genetic regulatory networks under morphology difference of integument of humans and mice. We found that the gene expression network in the skin is highly divergent between human and mouse.
