Abstract

A wide panel of murine induced T-cell lymphomas have been analysed for p16INK4a or p15INK4b alterations. Only one gamma-radiation-induced lymphoma showed p16INK4a homozygous deletion and no other intragenic mutations were found in these INK4 genes. However, de novo methylation of the 5' CpG islands of the murine p15INK4b and p16INK4a genes was found to be highly frequent. While p16INK4a hypermethylation was found in 36% of the neutron-radiation-induced lymphomas and 15% of the gamma-radiation-induced lymphomas, de novo methylation of p15INK4b occurs in 88% and 42% of these tumors respectively, correlating with deficient expression of the corresponding mRNA and allelic losses in the p15INK4b and p16INK4a chromosome location. These data represent, to our knowledge, the first report on the significant involvement of hypermethylation of these INK4 genes in murine primary tumors. Moreover, they show the importance of allelic losses and CpG island methylation of p15INK4b gene inactivation and support a tumor suppressor role for p15INK4b in T-cell lymphomas independent of p16INK4a.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
