Loss of imprinting (LOI), commonly observed in human tumors, refers to loss of monoallelic gene regulation normally conferred by parent-of-origin specific DNA methylation. To test the function of LOI in tumorigenesis, we developed a model using transient demethylation to generate imprint-free mouse ...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Summary: To identify distinct temporal patterns of mRNA expression in the kidney of rats following a bolus dose of the corticosteroid methylprednisolone. Hypothesis: That prednisone pharmacodynamics can be derived from expression profiling data.
ORGANISM(S): Rattus norvegicus 
Summary: CF patients homozygous for the DF08 DF08 genotype present a full range of phenotypic manifestations that exist within the pulmonary system. This project aims to identify candidate genes that influence the severity of pulmonary disease; Hypothesis: The goal is to find genes predictive of pro...

Aneuploidy, the condition of having an abnormal number of chromosomes, is a hallmark of cancer cells. Recent work performed in yeast and mouse models suggests that aneuploidy interferes with cell proliferation and organism development. However, other recent experiments suggested that aneuploidy migh...

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is caused by mutations in the PKHD1 gene in both humans and the orthologous PCK rat model. Although ARPKD results solely from PKHD1 mutations, the disease onset and severity are highly variable, indicating that other unknown genetic risk factor(s...

One primary bladder cancer and paired peripheral blood sample were subjected to whole genome sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. This technology was utilized to investigate the genetic basis of a durable remission of metastatic bladder cancer in a patient treated with everolimus, a dru...
