Number 1 January 2016 Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology Volume 1 - Number 1 May - September 1997 Volume 20 - Number 1 January 2016 Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL INIST-CNRS Scope The Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematologyis a peer reviewed on-line journal in open access, devoted to genes, cytogenetics, and clinical entities in cancer, and cancer-prone diseases. It is made for and by: clinicians and researchers in cytogenetics, molecular biology, oncology, haematology, and pathology. One main scope of the Atlas is to conjugate the scientific information provided by cytogenetics/molecular genetics to the clinical setting (diagnostics, prognostics and therapeutic design), another is to provide an encyclopedic knowledge in cancer genetics. The Atlas deals with cancer research and genomics. It is at the crossroads of research, virtual medical university (university and post-university e-learning), and telemedicine. It contributes to "meta-medicine", this mediation, using information technology, between the increasing amount of knowledge and the individual, having to use the information. Towards a personalized medicine of cancer. It presents structured review articles ("cards") on: 1- Genes, 2- Leukemias, 3- Solid tumors, 4- Cancer-prone diseases, and also 5- "Deep insights": more traditional review articles on the above subjects and on surrounding topics. It also present 6- Case reports in hematology and 7- Educational items in the various related topics for students in Medicine and in Sciences. The Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology does not publish research articles.

  • Systems-Epigenomics Inference of Transcription Factor Activity
    Chen et al. Genome Biology (2017) 18:236 DOI 10.1186/s13059-017-1366-0 RESEARCH Open Access Systems-epigenomics inference of transcription factor activity implicates aryl- hydrocarbon-receptor inactivation as a key event in lung cancer development Yuting Chen1†, Martin Widschwendter2 and Andrew E. Teschendorff1,2,3*† Abstract Background: Diverse molecular alterations associated with smoking in normal and precursor lung cancer cells have been reported, yet their role in lung cancer etiology remains unclear. A prominent example is hypomethylation of the aryl hydrocarbon-receptor repressor (AHRR) locus, which is observed in blood and squamous epithelial cells of smokers, but not in lung cancer. Results: Using a novel systems-epigenomics algorithm, called SEPIRA, which leverages the power of a large RNA- sequencing expression compendium to infer regulatory activity from messenger RNA expression or DNA methylation (DNAm) profiles, we infer the landscape of binding activity of lung-specific transcription factors (TFs) in lung carcinogenesis. We show that lung-specific TFs become preferentially inactivated in lung cancer and precursor lung cancer lesions and further demonstrate that these results can be derived using only DNAm data. We identify subsets of TFs which become inactivated in precursor cells. Among these regulatory factors, we identify AHR, the aryl hydrocarbon-receptor which controls a healthy immune response in the lung epithelium and whose repressor, AHRR, has recently been implicated in smoking-mediated lung cancer. In addition, we identify FOXJ1, a TF which promotes growth of airway cilia and effective clearance of the lung airway epithelium from carcinogens. Conclusions: We identify TFs, such as AHR, which become inactivated in the earliest stages of lung cancer and which, unlike AHRR hypomethylation, are also inactivated in lung cancer itself.

  • Novel Computational Analysis of Large Transcriptome Datasets Identifies
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Novel computational analysis of large transcriptome datasets identifes sets of genes distinguishing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease from healthy lung samples Fabienne K. Roessler1, Birke J. Benedikter2,3, Bernd Schmeck2,4,5,6 & Nadav Bar1* Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) kills over three million people worldwide every year. Despite its high global impact, the knowledge about the underlying molecular mechanisms is still limited. In this study, we aimed to extend the available knowledge by identifying a small set of COPD-associated genes. We analysed diferent publicly available gene expression datasets containing whole lung tissue (WLT) and airway epithelium (AE) samples from over 400 human subjects for diferentially expressed genes (DEGs). We reduced the resulting sets of 436 and 663 DEGs using a novel computational approach that utilises a random depth-frst search to identify genes which improve the distinction between COPD patients and controls along the frst principle component of the data. Our method identifed small sets of 10 and 15 genes in the WLT and AE, respectively. These sets of genes signifcantly (p < 10 –20) distinguish COPD patients from controls with high fdelity. The fnal sets revealed novel genes like cysteine rich protein 1 (CRIP1) or secretoglobin family 3A member 2 (SCGB3A2) that may underlie fundamental molecular mechanisms of COPD in these tissues.

Two work in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute ERNESTO DEL AGUILA III, NHGRI and both have dual appointments with other institutes. Another hails from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences in Research Triangle Park in North Carolina and holds a dual appointment with another institute. The other five Stadtmans each represent a different institute: National Institute CRISPR-Cas9 is a customizable tool that lets scientists cut and insert small pieces of DNA at precise areas along a DNA of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney strand.

Published OnlineFirst September 18, 2018; DOI: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-17-0987 ABSTRACT The extent to which early events shape tumor evolution is largely uncharacterized, even though a better understanding of these early events may help identify key vul- nerabilities in advanced tumors. Here, using genetically defi ned mouse models of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), we uncovered distinct metastatic programs attributable to the cell type of origin. In one model, tumors gain metastatic ability through amplifi cation of the transcription factor NFIB and a widespread increase in chromatin accessibility, whereas in the other model, tumors become metastatic in the absence of NFIB-driven chromatin alterations. Gene-expression and chromatin accessibility analyses identify distinct mechanisms as well as markers predictive of metastatic progression in both groups. Underlying the difference between the two programs was the cell type of origin of the tumors, with NFIB- independent metastases arising from mature neuroendocrine cells.
