Cases can be divided into two main molecular phenotypes: those with chromosomal instability (CIN) and those with microsatellite instability (MSI), which occur at a frequency of 85% and 15%, respectively. The focus of this study was on MSI tumors, which have defective mismatch repair systems, and on the multitudinous insertions and deletions in MSI tumor DNA which are the result of this defect. The primary aim of the thesis was to serve as a pilot project for later work on a consecutive, clinically representative tumor series. Firstly, we wished to establish an assemblage of genes which could reasonably be assumed to be targets of mismatch repair deficiency, i.e. that they were more frequently subject to insertions or deletions than comparable sequences. Secondly, we wanted to see whether there were, among the above targets, genes which either singly or in company appeared to affect patient outcome depending on their mutational status. A search of the available scientific literature for genes which had been analyzed for, almost uniquely, frameshift mutations in MSI tumors yielded 162 candidates. Forty- three of these were selected for laboratory analysis. The results provided confirmation of the target gene status for many of these, among them certain well-known genes such as TGFβRII, MSH3, E2F4 and CASP5. The histone acetyl transferase EP300 had never before been examined for this type of mutation in primary tumor DNA, and proved to be a low-frequency, but nevertheless noteworthy, target in MSI colorectal cancers. No significant covariance of genes was found which did not depend on mutation frequency alone. A single gene of intermediate mutation frequency showed a robust association with long- term patient survival. SLC23A2, which encodes a sodium/vitamin C cotransporter, was significantly associated with poor prognosis when mutated, and showed indications of being additionally informative with regard to clinical staging as well. 3 Abbreviations ATP Adenosine triphosphate BER Base excision repair CDK Cyclin-dependent kinase CIMP CpG island methylator phenotype CIN Chromomsomal instability CML Chronic myelogenous leukemia cMNR Coding mononucleotide repeat CpG Cytosine-phosphate-guanine CRC Colorectal cancer CSC Cancer stem cell DNA Deoxyribonucleic acid GEF Guanine nucleotide exchange factor GJIC Gap junction intercellular communication HNPCC Hereditary non-polyposis coli MMR Mismatch repair MSI Microsatellite instability MSI-H High microsatellite instability MSI-L Low microsatellite instability MSS Microsatellite stability NER Nucleotide excision repair NHEJ Non-homologous end joining NMD Nonsense-mediated decay PCR Polymerase chain reaction RNA Ribonucleic acid UTR Untranslated region 4 Gene Symbols I - Incidentals ABL Abelson murine leukemia viral (v-abl) oncogene homolog AKT Protein kinase B APC Adenomatous polyposis coli APE Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease ARF Alternative reading frame = p14 BCL2 B-cell chronic lymphatic leukemia/lymphoma 2 BCR Breakpoint cluster region BECN1 Beclin 1 BIRC5 Baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 5 BRAF v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 BRCA1 Breast cancer gene 1 CCND1 Cyclin D1 CDH1 E-cadherin CTNNB β-catenin ERCC1 Excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

  • Dynamic Transcriptomic Profiles of Zebrafish Gills in Response to Zinc
    Zheng et al. BMC Genomics 2010, 11:548 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/11/548 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Dynamic transcriptomic profiles of zebrafish gills in response to zinc depletion Dongling Zheng1,4, Peter Kille2, Graham P Feeney2, Phil Cunningham1, Richard D Handy3, Christer Hogstrand1* Abstract Background: Zinc deficiency is detrimental to organisms, highlighting its role as an essential micronutrient contributing to numerous biological processes. To investigate the underlying molecular events invoked by zinc depletion we performed a temporal analysis of transcriptome changes observed within the zebrafish gill. This tissue represents a model system for studying ion absorption across polarised epithelial cells as it provides a major pathway for fish to acquire zinc directly from water whilst sharing a conserved zinc transporting system with mammals. Results: Zebrafish were treated with either zinc-depleted (water = 2.61 μgL-1; diet = 26 mg kg-1) or zinc-adequate (water = 16.3 μgL-1; diet = 233 mg kg-1) conditions for two weeks. Gill samples were collected at five time points and transcriptome changes analysed in quintuplicate using a 16K oligonucleotide array. Of the genes represented the expression of a total of 333 transcripts showed differential regulation by zinc depletion (having a fold-change greater than 1.8 and an adjusted P-value less than 0.1, controlling for a 10% False Discovery Rate). Down-regulation was dominant at most time points and distinct sets of genes were regulated at different stages. Annotation enrichment analysis revealed that ‘Developmental Process’ was the most significantly overrepresented Biological Process GO term (P = 0.0006), involving 26% of all regulated genes.

The molecular pathogenesis of osteosarcoma is very rearrangements (1,2). It has been reported that both RB1 and complicated and associated with chaotic abnormalities on many TP53 pathways are inactivated, and the regulation of cell cycle chromosomal arms. We analyzed 12 cases of osteosarcomas is impaired in most osteosarcomas (1). For example, deletion/ with comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) to identify mutation of the CDKN2A gene encoding both p16INK4A and chromosomal imbalances, and detected highly frequent p14ARF on 9p21 (3-5), amplification of the CDK4 (6), CCND1, chromosomal alterations in chromosome 6q, 8p, 10p and MDM2 genes (4), and other aberrations related to inactivation 10q. To define the narrow rearranged region on chromosome 6 of these pathways have been found. Tumor suppressor genes with higher resolution, loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis (TSGs) are suspected to be involved in tumorigenesis of was performed with 21 microsatellite markers. Out of 31 cases, osteosarcoma. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) studies have 23 cases (74%) showed allelic loss at least with one marker on detected frequent allelic loss at 3q, 13q, 17p and 18q (7).

It is unclear, however, where this dramatic reduction occurs genome-wide. ChIP-sequencing revealed that by 24 h after expression, e1a erases 95% of H3K18ac peaks in normal, contact-inhibited fibroblasts and replaces them with one-third as many at new genomic locations.

  • Exposure to Childhood Abuse Is Associated with Human Sperm DNA Methylation Andrea L
    Roberts et al. Translational Psychiatry (2018) 8:194 DOI 10.1038/s41398-018-0252-1 Translational Psychiatry ARTICLE Open Access Exposure to childhood abuse is associated with human sperm DNA methylation Andrea L. Roberts 1, Nicole Gladish2,EvanGatev2,3, Meaghan J. Jones 2,YingChen4, Julia L. MacIsaac2, Shelley S. Tworoger4,5,S.BrynAustin6, Cigdem Tanrikut7, Jorge E. Chavarro4,5,8,AndreaA.Baccarelli9 and Michael S. Kobor 2,10 Abstract Offspring of persons exposed to childhood abuse are at higher risk of neurodevelopmental and physical health disparities across the life course. Animal experiments have indicated that paternal environmental stressors can affect sperm DNA methylation and gene expression in an offspring. Childhood abuse has been associated with epigenetic marks in human blood, saliva, and brain tissue, with statistically significant methylation differences ranging widely. However, no studies have examined the association of childhood abuse with DNA methylation in gametes. We examined the association of childhood abuse with DNA methylation in human sperm. Combined physical, emotional, and sexual abuse in childhood was characterized as none, medium, or high. DNA methylation was assayed in 46 sperm samples from 34 men in a longitudinal non-clinical cohort using HumanMethylation450 BeadChips. We performed principal component analysis and examined the correlation of principal components with abuse exposure. Childhood abuse was associated with a component that captured 6.2% of total variance in DNA methylation (p < 0.05). Next, we investigated the regions differentially methylated by abuse exposure. We identified 12 DNA regions differentially methylated by childhood abuse, containing 64 probes and including sites on genes associated with 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; neuronal function (MAPT, CLU), fat cell regulation (PRDM16), and immune function (SDK1).
