The discovery of cytosine hydroxymethylation (5-hmC) as a mechanism that potentially controls DNA methylation changes typical of neoplasia prompted us to investigate its behavior in colon cancer. 5-hmC is globally reduced in proliferating cells such as colon tumors and the gut crypt progenitors, fro...

Sox9 is a transcription factor expressed in most solid tumors. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Sox9 function during tumorigenesis remain unclear. Here, using a genetic mouse model of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), the most frequent cancer in human, we show that Sox9 is expressed from the e...

Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of HCT116 WT, HCT116 DNMT1 and DNMT3B double KO, and breast cancer tumors by next generation Infinium assay Bisulfite converted DNA from 22 samples were hybridized to the Illumina's HumanMethylation450 BeadChip

DNA methylation is a central epigenetic modification that has essential roles in cellular processes including chromatin structure, gene regulation, development and disease. The de novo DNA methyltransferases are responsible for the generation of genomic methylation patterns, but the underlying mecha...

TET proteins convert 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, an emerging dynamic epigenetic state of DNA that can influence transcription. Evidence has linked TET1 function to epigenetic repression complexes, yet mechanistic information, especially for the TET2 and TET3 proteins, remains limite...

The TET-family enzymes (TETs) convert methylcytosine to hydroxymethylcytosine, a lately discovered epigenetic modification that can modulate transcription. While recent reports suggest that TETs may play a role in response to oxidative stress, this role remains uncertain. Here we show that Tet1 is s...
