Capture Hi-C Library Generation and Analysis to Detect Chromatin Interactions.
(Wiley, 2018-07-06)
Chromosome conformation capture (3C), coupled with next-generation sequencing (Hi-C), provides a means for deciphering not only the principles underlying genome folding and architecture, but more broadly, the role 3D ...
Genetic Variants in Epigenetic Pathways and Risks of Multiple Cancers in the GAME-ON Consortium.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-06-01)
Background: Epigenetic disturbances are crucial in cancer initiation, potentially with pleiotropic effects, and may be influenced by the genetic background.Methods: In a subsets (ASSET) meta-analytic approach, we investigated ...
Genetic predisposition to B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia at 14q11.2 is mediated by a CEBPE promoter polymorphism.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2019-01-01)
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common paediatric malignancy. Genome-wide association studies have shown variation at 14q11.2 influences ALL risk. We sought to decipher causal variant(s) at 14q11.2 and the ...
Genome-wide association analysis identifies a meningioma risk locus at 11p15.5.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2018-10-09)
BACKGROUND: Meningiomas are adult brain tumors originating in the meningeal coverings of the brain and spinal cord, with significant heritable basis. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have previously identified only ...
Glioma-related seizures in relation to histopathological subtypes: a report from the glioma international case-control study.
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2018-06-01)
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the distribution of glioma-related seizures and seizure control at the time of tumor diagnosis with respect to tumor histologic subtypes, tumor treatment and patient ...
Carboplatin in BRCA1/2-mutated and triple-negative breast cancer BRCAness subgroups: the TNT Trial.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-04-30)
Germline mutations in BRCA1/2 predispose individuals to breast cancer (termed germline-mutated BRCA1/2 breast cancer, gBRCA-BC) by impairing homologous recombination (HR) and causing genomic instability. HR also repairs ...
Off-Target V(D)J Recombination Drives Lymphomagenesis and Is Escalated by Loss of the Rag2 C Terminus
(Elsevier BV, 2015-09-01)
Genome-wide analysis of thymic lymphomas from Tp53(-/-) mice with wild-type or C-terminally truncated Rag2 revealed numerous off-target, RAG-mediated DNA rearrangements. A significantly higher fraction of these errors ...
Simulations of DNA topoisomerase 1B bound to supercoiled DNA reveal changes in the flexibility pattern of the enzyme and a secondary protein–DNA binding site
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-08-18)
Human topoisomerase 1B has been simulated covalently bound to a negatively supercoiled DNA minicircle, and its behavior compared to the enzyme bound to a simple linear DNA duplex. The presence of the more realistic supercoiled ...
Risk of second primary cancer following myeloid neoplasia and risk of myeloid neoplasia as second primary cancer: a nationwide, observational follow up study in Sweden.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-08-01)
BACKGROUND: Although advances in the treatment of myeloid neoplasms have led to improved patient survival, this improvement has been accompanied by an increased risk of second primary cancer (ie, the risk of another cancer ...
Familial risks of acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms.
