Recent works have shown that RNA Polymerase (Pol) II can be recruited to, and transcribe, distal regulatory regions. Here, we analyzed transcription initiation and elongation through genome-wide localization of Pol II, General Transcription Factors (GTFs) and active chromatin in developing T-cells. ...
Apart from alterations in the RET/PTC-RAS-BRAF pathway, comparatively little is known about the genetics of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). We show that numerous miRNAs are transcriptionally up-regulated in PTC tumors compared with unaffected thyroid tissue. A set of 5 miRNAs including the 3 most...
Context: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate pathological processes, yet their potential roles in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) are poorly understood. Objective: To profile transcriptionally dysregulated lncRNAs in PTC and identify lncRNAs associated with clinicopathological characteristics....
Analysis of impact of a novel RNA gene named Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Susceptibility 3 (PTCSC3) on gene expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma cell line cells (TPC-1)
Genome-wide gene expression analysis in TPC-1 cells transfected with and without expression construct for PTCSC3 . TPC-1 cells were transiently transfected in quadruplicate with an empty vector (pcDNA3) and with the expression vector harboring cDNA for PTCSC3. After 24 hours from transfection total ...
We show that numerous miRNAs are transcriptionally up-regulated in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) tumors compared with unaffected thyroid tissue. Among the predicted target genes of the three most upregulated miRNAs (miRs 221, 222 and 146b), only less than 15% showed significant downexpression i...
Recently, deep sequencing of melanoma and pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia samples identified a new microRNA - miR-3151 - embedded in intron 1 of the BAALC gene. MiR genes are located throughout the genome, but about one-third of mammalian miRs reside within introns of host genes. Some of thes...
