This is one of expressional parts of the study. These data were correlated to epigenetic marks and CG density of genes in analyzed cells. The whole study has a following summary: To elucidate possible roles of DNA methylation and chromatin marks in transcription, we performed epigenetic profiling of...

Unprotected exposure to UVB radiation from the sun and the resulting DNA damage are thought to be responsible for physiological changes in the skin and for a variety of skin cancers, including basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma. Although the mutagenic effects of UVB have b...

A large body of evidence has linked secondhand smoke (SHS) to lung cancer in nonsmokers. Yet, the underlying mechanisms of SHS carcinogenicity in nonsmokers' lung cancer remain elusive. Recently, we have demonstrated a genotoxic mode of action for SHS, based on the ability of this carcinogen to indu...

Ionizing radiation, released during accidents at nuclear power plants or after atomic bomb explosions, is a potentially serious health threat for the exposed human population. This type of high-energy radiation causes DNA damage including single- and double-strand breaks and induces chromosomal rear...

The tumor suppressor gene RASSF1A (Ras association domain family protein 1A) coding for a microtubule stabilizing protein is epigenetically silenced in most human cancers. As a binding partner of the kinases MST1 and MST2, the mammalian orthologues of the Drosophila Hippo kinase, RASSF1A is a potent...

After nerve injury, myelin and Remak Schwann cells reprogram to repair cells specialized for regeneration. Normally providing strong regenerative support, these cells fail in aging animals, and during the chronic denervation that results from slow axon growth. This impairs axonal regeneration and ca...
