During the last 3 years, a number of approaches for normalization RNA sequencing data have emerged in literature, differing both type bias adjustment and statistical strategy adopted. However, as continue to accumulate, there has been no clear consensus on appropriate method be used or impact chosen downstream analysis. In this work, we focus comprehensive comparison seven recently proposed methods differential analysis RNA-seq data, with an emphasis use varied real simulated datasets...

Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNA) are noncoding RNAs that regulate multiple cellular processes, including proliferation and apoptosis. We used microarray technology to identify miRNAs were upregulated by non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells in response cisplatin (CDDP). The corresponding synthetic miRNA precursors (pre-miRNAs) per se not lethal when transfected into yet affected death induction CDDP, C2-ceramide, cadmium, etoposide, mitoxantrone an inducer-specific fashion. Whereas...

Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins maintain transcriptional repression throughout development, mostly by regulating chromatin structure. Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), a component of the machinery, is responsible for methylation histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me2/3). Jarid2 was previously identified as cofactor PRC2, PRC2 targeting to and its enzymatic activity. Deletion leads impaired orchestration gene expression during cell lineage commitment. Here, we reveal an unexpected crosstalk between with...

Abstract Inflammation is a complex physiological process triggered in response to harmful stimuli 1 . It involves cells of the immune system capable clearing sources injury and damaged tissues. Excessive inflammation can occur as result infection hallmark several diseases 2–4 The molecular bases underlying inflammatory responses are not fully understood. Here we show that cell surface glycoprotein CD44, which marks acquisition distinct phenotypes context development, immunity cancer...

DNA methylation is essential for protecting the mammalian germline against transposons. When methylation-based transposon control defective, meiotic chromosome pairing consistently impaired during spermatogenesis: How and why meiosis vulnerable to activity unknown. Using two methylation-deficient backgrounds, Dnmt3L Miwi2 mutant mice, we reveal that largely dispensable silencing transposons before onset. After this, it becomes crucial back up a developmentally programmed H3K9me2 loss....

Abstract Long non‐coding RNA s (lnc s) play diverse roles in physiological and pathological processes. Several lnc have been suggested to modulate gene expression by guiding chromatin‐modifying complexes specific sites the genome. However, besides example of Xist, clear‐cut evidence demonstrating this novel mode regulation remains sparse. Here, we focus on HOTAIR , a that is overexpressed several tumor types previously proposed key role silencing through direct recruitment Polycomb...

Abstract In Drosophila , a complex consisting of Calypso and ASX catalyzes H2A deubiquitination has been reported to act as part the Polycomb machinery in transcriptional silencing. The mammalian homologs these proteins (BAP1 ASXL1/2/3, respectively), are frequently mutated various cancer types, yet their precise functions remain unclear. Using an integrative approach based on isogenic cell lines generated with CRISPR/Cas9, we uncover unanticipated role for BAP1 gene activation. This...

SummaryPatients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are routinely treated cytotoxic agents such as cisplatin. Through a genome-wide siRNA-based screen, we identified vitamin B6 metabolism central regulator of cisplatin responses in vitro and vivo. By aggravating bioenergetic catastrophe that involves the depletion intracellular glutathione, exacerbates cisplatin-mediated DNA damage, thus sensitizing large panel lines to apoptosis. Moreover, sensitizes cells apoptosis induction by...

Upon fertilization, the highly specialised sperm and oocyte genomes are remodelled to confer totipotency. The mechanisms of dramatic reprogramming events that occur have remained unknown, presumed roles histone modifying enzymes just starting be elucidated. Here, we explore function oocyte-inherited pool a H3K4 K9 demethylase, LSD1/KDM1A during early mouse development. KDM1A deficiency results in developmental arrest by two-cell stage, accompanied stepwise alterations H3K9 methylation...

Abstract Motivation: Because of its low cost, amplicon sequencing, also known as ultra-deep targeted is now becoming widely used in oncology for detection actionable mutations, i.e. mutations influencing cell sensitivity to therapies. Amplicon sequencing based on the polymerase chain reaction amplification regions interest, a process that considerably distorts information copy numbers initially present tumor DNA. Therefore, additional experiments such single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) or...

Abstract The Polycomb group of proteins is required for the proper orchestration gene expression due to its role in maintaining transcriptional silencing. It composed several chromatin modifying complexes, including Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), which deposits H3K27me2/3. Here, we report identification a cofactor PRC2, EZHIP (EZH1/2 Inhibitory Protein), expressed predominantly gonads. limits enzymatic activity PRC2 and lessens interaction between core complex accessory subunits, but does not...
