Abstract Establishment of the DNA methylation landscape mammalian oocytes, mediated by DNMT3A-DNMT3L complex, is crucial for reproduction and development. In mouse high levels occur exclusively in transcriptionally active regions, with moderate to low other regions. Histone H3K36me3 mediates transcribed regions; however, it unknown which histone mark guides Here, we show that, H3K36me2 highly enriched X chromosome broadly distributed across all autosomes. Upon depletion, moderately...
Nivolumab, an anti–PD-1 antibody, is now considered important therapeutic agent in several advanced malignancies. However, immune-related adverse events such as endocrinopathies have been reported with its use. Thyroid disorder and isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency frequently nivolumab-induced events. Another endocrinopathy type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), described rapid onset complete insulin insufficiency, at times leading to fulminant T1DM. We report the case of a...
We investigated the effect of interleukin-13 (IL-13) on production IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) and proinflammatory cytokines by human alveolar macrophages (AM). AM were obtained bronchoalveolar lavage from healthy donors. The IL-1ra cytokines, such as beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), quantitated enzyme immunoassays. spontaneously produced IL-1ra, this was significantly augmented IL-13. On other hand, IL-13 alone did not affect freshly isolated AM. Upon stimulation...
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) has previously been found to downregulate interleukin-1 (IL-1) production, but upregulate the production of IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) in human monocytes stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In present study we wanted determine whether IL-1ra and alveolar macrophages (AMs) is regulated differently at protein messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels by IL-4 interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). AMs obtained from healthy donors bronchoalveolar lavage centrifugal...
Nivolumab, an anti-programmed cell death-1 monoclonal antibody, has improved the survival of patients with malignant melanoma. Despite its efficacy, nivolumab inconsistently induces thyroid dysfunction as immune-related adverse event (irAE). This study aimed to evaluate nivolumab-induced determine risks and mechanisms irAEs.After excluding 10 patients, data 24 melanoma (aged 17-85 years; 54% female) were retrospectively analyzed.Thyroid irAEs observed in seven (29%). Three had hypothyroidism...
Bone and vascular diseases are considered to share pathogenic mechanisms. Excess glucocorticoids, key regulators of cardiovascular metabolic homeostasis, may promote both simultaneously. We used endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) investigate whether glucocorticoid excess underlies coexisting bone diseases. included 194 patients with adrenal tumors (ATs): autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS, n = 97) non-functional AT (n 97). ACS was further classified into overt CS 17) subclinical (SCS, 80)....
BACKGROUND:Ipilimumab is a therapeutic human monoclonal antibody that targets the T-cell inhibitory molecule, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4), and classified as an immune checkpoint inhibitor has been shown to improve prognosis in patients with advanced melanoma. However, several immune-related adverse events have reported be associated ipilimumab Treatment. A case of acute exacerbation chronic adrenal insufficiency presented highlights glucocorticoid dosage for undergoing steroid...

However, detailed interactions between methylation (DNAme) gene expression through perinatal stages remain poorly...
Increased urinary free cortisol in response to the oral administration of dexamethasone is a paradoxical reaction mainly reported patients with primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease. Here, we describe first case subclinical Cushing's syndrome represented by autonomous secretion and administration, harboring an activating mutation α subunit stimulatory G protein (GNAS). A 65-year-old woman was diagnosed during evaluation for bilateral adrenal masses. Tumors unknown origin were...
