Introduction epithelial ovarian cancer are high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC; ref. 7) that are more challenging to effectively treat. The The American Cancer Society estimates 22,240 new cases of first-line therapy for ovarian cancer involves the combination of ovarian cancer in 2018 (1). Unfortunately, the five-year survival cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum and taxane-based rate of ovarian cancer remains less than 50%. Thus, nearly 14,000 chemotherapy. Platinum-based compounds such as cisplatin women in the United States and 160,000 worldwide die of induce increased DNA damage through interstrand cross-links ovarian cancer each year (2). Epithelial ovarian cancers, which and cell death in proliferative cancerous cells (7, 8). Despite the account for nearly 90% of all ovarian cancer diagnoses, are high rate of initial response to therapy, the duration of response associated with worse prognosis (3). They originate mainly from declines over time and a vast majority of patients succumb to the epithelial cells of fallopian tubes (4, 5) and areas of endo- chemotherapy-resistant ovarian cancer (9–12). metriosis (6), among others.

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.

G.1,2 & Yu Y. Y.1,2 Gastric cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers and is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Approximately 40% of global gastric cancer cases occur in China, with peritoneal metastasis being the prevalent form of recurrence and metastasis in advanced disease. Currently, there are limited clinical approaches for predicting and treatment of peritoneal metastasis, resulting in a 6-month average survival time. By comprehensive genome analysis will uncover the pathogenesis of peritoneal metastasis. Here we describe a comprehensive whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing analysis of one advanced gastric cancer case, including non-cancerous mucosa, primary cancer and matched peritoneal metastatic cancer. The peripheral blood is used as normal control. We identified 27 mutated genes, of which 19 genes are reported in COSMIC database (ZNF208, CRNN, ATXN3, DCTN1, RP1L1, PRB4, PRB1, MUC4, HS6ST3, MUC17, JAM2, ITGAD, IREB2, IQUB, CORO1B, CCDC121, AKAP2, ACAN and ACADL), and eight genes have not previously been described in gastric cancer (CCDC178, ARMC4, TUBB6, PLIN4, PKLR, PDZD2, DMBT1and DAB1).

This article is published with open access Abstract Oxidation of H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4ox) by lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) generates an H3 modification with an unknown physiological function. We find that LOXL2 and H3K4ox are higher in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell lines and patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) than those from other breast cancer subtypes. ChIP-seq revealed that H3K4ox is located primarily in heterochromatin, where it is involved in chromatin compaction. Knocking down LOXL2 reduces H3K4ox levels 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: and causes chromatin decompaction, resulting in a sustained activation of the DNA damage response (DDR) and increased susceptibility to anticancer agents. This critical role that LOXL2 and oxidized H3 play in chromatin compaction and DDR suggests that functionally targeting LOXL2 could be a way to sensitize TNBC cells to conventional therapy.
