Number 11 November 2017 Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology Volume 1 - Number 1 May - September 1997 Volume 21 - Number 11 November 2017 Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL INIST-CNRS Scope The Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology is 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.

Here we show that HLTF, SHPRH and HLTF/SHPRH knockout cell lines show different sensitivities towards UV-irradiation, methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), cisplatin and mitomycin C (MMC), which are drugs that induce different types of DNA lesions. In general, the HLTF/SHPRH double knockout cell line was less sensitive than the single knockouts in response to all drugs, and interestingly, especially to MMS and cisplatin. Using the SupF assay, we detected an increase in the mutation frequency in HLTF knockout cells both after UV- and MMS-induced DNA lesions, while we detected a decrease in mutation frequency over UV lesions in the HLTF/SHPRH double knockout cells. No change in the mutation frequency was detected in the HLTF/SHPRH double knockout cell line after MMS treatment, even though these cells were more resistant to MMS and grew faster than the other cell lines after treatment with DNA damaging agents.

  • Identification of Novel Regulatory Genes in Acetaminophen

A long asymptomatic period and limited treatment options result in a high rate of liver failure, generally resulting in either organ transplant or mortality. The underlying molecular mechanisms of injury are not well understood and effective therapy is limited. Identification of previously unknown genetic risk factors would provide new mechanistic insights and new therapeutic targets for APAP induced hepatocyte toxicity or liver injury. This study used a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen to evaluate genes that are protective against or cause susceptibility to APAP-induced liver injury. HuH7 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells containing CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockouts were treated with 15mM APAP for 30 minutes to 4 days. A gene expression profile was developed based on the 1) top screening hits, 2) overlap with gene expression data of APAP overdosed human patients, and 3) biological interpretation including assessment of known and suspected iii APAP-associated genes and their therapeutic potential, predicted affected biological pathways, and functionally validated candidate genes.

These domains are characteristic of several DNA repair proteins, transcription factors, and helicases. We have cloned both human and mouse homologs of this novel gene using interexon PCR and RACE technologies. The human cDNA, termed SHPRH, is 6018 bp and codes for a putative protein of 1683 amino acids. The mouse cDNA, termed Shprh,is 7225 bp and codes for a putative protein of 1616 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequences of the two proteins share 86% identity. Both genes are expressed ubiquitously, with a transcript size of ϳ7.5 kb.

    BIOMEDICAL INFORMATICS Abstract GENE LIST AUTOMATICALLY DERIVED FOR YOU (GLAD4U): DERIVING AND PRIORITIZING GENE LISTS FROM PUBMED LITERATURE JEROME JOURQUIN Thesis under the direction of Professor Bing Zhang Answering questions such as ―Which genes are related to breast cancer?‖ usually requires retrieving relevant publications through the PubMed search engine, reading these publications, and manually creating gene lists. This process is both time-consuming and prone to errors. We report GLAD4U (Gene List Automatically Derived For You), a novel, free web-based gene retrieval and prioritization tool. The quality of gene lists created by GLAD4U for three Gene Ontology terms and three disease terms was assessed using ―gold standard‖ lists curated in public databases. We also compared the performance of GLAD4U with that of another gene prioritization software, EBIMed. GLAD4U has a high overall recall. Although precision is generally low, its prioritization methods successfully rank truly relevant genes at the top of generated lists to facilitate efficient browsing. GLAD4U is simple to use, and its interface can be found at: http://bioinfo.vanderbilt.edu/glad4u.

  • The DNA2 Nuclease/Helicase Is an Estrogen-Dependent Gene Mutated in Breast and Ovarian Cancers

Here we conducted a bioinformatical screen to reveal DNA damage response genes that are upregulated by estrogen and highly mutated in breast and ovarian cancers. This screen identified 53 estrogen-dependent cancer genes, some of which are novel. Notably, the screen retrieved 9 DNA helicases as well as 5 nucleases. DNA2, which functions as both a helicase and a nuclease and plays a role in DNA repair and replication, was retrieved in the screen. Mutations in DNA2, found in estrogen-dependent cancers, are clustered in the helicase and nuclease domains, suggesting activity impairment. Indeed, we show that mutations found in ovarian cancers impair DNA2 activity.
