Barendregt,*† Edwin F. E. de Haas,* Marcel J. T. Reinders,‡ Arjan C. Lankester,§ Tom Re´ve´sz,¶ Frank J. T. Staal,* and Jacques J. M. van Dongen2* The role of specific transcription factors in the initiation and regulation of Ig gene rearrangements has been studied extensively in mouse models, but data on normal human precursor B cell differentiation are limited. We purified five human precursor B cell subsets, and assessed and quantified their IGH, IGK, and IGL gene rearrangement patterns and gene expression profiles. Pro-B cells already massively initiate DH-JH rearrangements, which are completed with VH-DJH rearrangements in pre-B-I cells. Large cycling pre-B-II cells are selected for in-frame IGH gene rearrangements. The first IGK/IGL gene rearrangements were initiated in pre-B-I cells, but their frequency increased enormously in small pre-B-II cells, and in-frame selection was found in immature B cells. Transcripts of the RAG1 and RAG2 genes and earlier defined transcription factors, such as E2A, early B cell factor, E2-2, PAX5, and IRF4, were specifically up-regulated at stages undergoing Ig gene rearrangements. Based on the combined Ig gene rearrangement status and gene expression profiles of consecutive precursor B cell subsets, we identified 16 candidate genes involved in initiation and/or regulation of Ig gene rearrangements. These analyses provide new insights into early human pre- cursor B cell differentiation steps and represent an excellent template for studies on oncogenic transformation in precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukemia and B cell differentiation blocks in primary Ab deficiencies.

The hormone receptors, such as estrogen receptor alpha and androgen receptor in breast cancer and prostate cancer, are critical to cancer cell proliferation and tumor growth. In this review we focused on the cross-talk between hormone and hypoxia pathways, particularly in breast cancer. We delineated a novel signaling pathway from estrogen receptor to hypoxia-inducible factor 1, and discussed the role of this pathway in endocrine therapy resistance. Further, we discussed the estrogen and hypoxia pathways converging at histone demethylase KDM4B, an important epigenetic modifier in cancer. Keywords: estrogen receptor alpha; hypoxia-inducible factor 1; KDM4B; endocrine therapy resistance 1. Introduction A solid tumor is a heterogeneous mass that is comprised of not only genetically and epigenetically distinct clones, but also of areas with varying degree of hypoxia that result from rapid cancer cell proliferation that outgrows its blood supply. To survive in hostile hypoxic environments, cancer cells decelerate their proliferation rate, alter metabolism and cellular pH, and induce angiogenesis [1].

Background: In locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), patients who did not achieve pathologic complete response (non-pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy develop rapid tumor metastasis. Tumor mutation burden (TMB) is a potential biomarker of cancer therapy, though whether it is applicable to TNBC is still unclear. Methods: A total of 14 non-pCR TNBC patients were enrolled, and tissue samples from radical operation were collected. Of these, 7 cases developed disease progression within 12 months after operation [short disease-free survival (short DFS)], while others showed longer DFS over 1 year (long DFS). Next generation sequencing (NGS) analysis targeting 422 cancer-related genes and in vitro studies were performed.

  • Detection of Interacting Transcription Factors in Human Tissues Using
    Myšičková and Vingron BMC Genomics 2012, 13(Suppl 1):S2 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/13/S1/S2 PROCEEDINGS Open Access Detection of interacting transcription factors in human tissues using predicted DNA binding affinity Alena Myšičková*, Martin Vingron From The Tenth Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Conference (APBC 2012) Melbourne, Australia. 17-19 January 2012 Abstract Background: Tissue-specific gene expression is generally regulated by combinatorial interactions among transcription factors (TFs) which bind to the DNA. Despite this known fact, previous discoveries of the mechanism that controls gene expression usually consider only a single TF. Results: We provide a prediction of interacting TFs in 22 human tissues based on their DNA-binding affinity in promoter regions. We analyze all possible pairs of 130 vertebrate TFs from the JASPAR database. First, all human promoter regions are scanned for single TF-DNA binding affinities with TRAP and for each TF a ranked list of all promoters ordered by the binding affinity is created. We then study the similarity of the ranked lists and detect candidates for TF-TF interaction by applying a partial independence test for multiway contingency tables. Our candidates are validated by both known protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and known gene regulation mechanisms in the selected tissue. We find that the known PPIs are significantly enriched in the groups of our predicted TF-TF interactions (2 and 7 times more common than expected by chance). In addition, the predicted interacting TFs for studied tissues (liver, muscle, hematopoietic stem cell) are supported in literature to be active regulators or to be expressed in the corresponding tissue.

Tel: þ44 2076798935; Email: [email protected] Abstract Otosclerosis is a relatively common heterogenous condition, characterized by abnormal bone remodelling in the otic capsule leading to fixation of the stapedial footplate and an associated conductive hearing loss. Although familial linkage and candidate gene association studies have been performed in recent years, little progress has been made in identifying disease- causing genes. Here, we used whole-exome sequencing in four families exhibiting dominantly inherited otosclerosis to identify 23 candidate variants (reduced to 9 after segregation analysis) for further investigation in a secondary cohort of 84 familial cases. Multiple mutations were found in the SERPINF1 (Serpin Peptidase Inhibitor, Clade F) gene which encodes PEDF (pigment epithelium-derived factor), a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis and known regulator of bone density. Six rare heterozygous SERPINF1 variants were found in seven patients in our familial otosclerosis cohort; three are missense mutations predicted to be deleterious to protein function.

Supplementary Figure S3. Values of BIC obtained by analyzing values of K from 1 to 10, corresponding on the same amount of clusters defining the proportion of ancestry in the 267 genotyped individuals. Supplementary Table S2. Estimation of genomic effective population size (Ne) traced back to 18 generations ago (Gen. ago). The linkage disequilibrium estimation, adjusted for sampling bias was also included (LD_r2), as well as the relative standard deviation (SD(LD_r2)).
