Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a rare, clinically and genetically heterogeneous inherited cancer syndrome. Most cases are due to mutations in TP53. CHK2 is a minor predisposing locus; we recently mapped a third locus to 1q23. In both TP53 and non-TP53 LFS, there is evidence for risk heterogeneity ...

Malaria is caused by Plasmodium parasites, which are transmitted via the bites of infected Anopheline mosquitoes. Midgut invasion is a major bottleneck for Plasmodium development inside the mosquito vectors as a rapidly responding immune system recognizes ookinetes and recruits killing factors from ...

BACKGROUND:Dynamic transcriptional regulation is critical for an organism's response to environmental signals and yet remains elusive to capture. Such transcriptional regulation is mediated by master transcription factors (TF) that control large gene regulatory networks. Recently, we described a dyn...

Specific changes in gene expression during cancer initiation should enable discovery of biomarkers for risk assessment, early detection and targets for chemoprevention. It has been previously demonstrated that altered mRNA and proteome signatures of morphologically normal cells bearing a single inhe...

We found acetyl-CoA levels increase when cells are committed to growth. We also found 3 components of the SAGA complex, Spt7p, Sgf73p and Ada3p as well as histones are dynamically acetylated in tune with the acetyl-CoA levels. ChIP-seq study reveals SAGA and H3K9ac predominantly occupy growth genes ...

Oxaliplatin resistance was induced in 2 colorectal cancer cell lines (LoVo-92, wt-p53 and LoVo-Li, functionally inactive p53) and one ovarian cancer cell line (A2780, wt-p53). Resistance was induced by weekly exposure to oxaliplatin for 4 hrs or 72 hrs with increasing concentrations for a period of ...

In vitro modeling of human disease has recently become feasible with the adoption of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology. Here, we established patient-derived iPSCs from an Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) family and investigated the role of mutant p53 in the development of osteosarcoma (OS). ...
