    Mouse development with a single E2F activator (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-07-03
    Description: The E2F family is conserved from Caenorhabditis elegans to mammals, with some family members having transcription activation functions and others having repressor functions. Whereas C. elegans and Drosophila melanogaster have a single E2F activator protein and repressor protein, mammals have at least three activator and five repressor proteins. Why such genetic complexity evolved in mammals is not known. To begin to evaluate this genetic complexity, we targeted the inactivation of the entire subset of activators, E2f1, E2f2, E2f3a and E2f3b, singly or in combination in mice. We demonstrate that E2f3a is sufficient to support mouse embryonic and postnatal development. Remarkably, expression of E2f3b or E2f1 from the E2f3a locus (E2f3a(3bki) or E2f3a(1ki), respectively) suppressed all the postnatal phenotypes associated with the inactivation of E2f3a. We conclude that there is significant functional redundancy among activators and that the specific requirement for E2f3a during postnatal development is dictated by regulatory sequences governing its selective spatiotemporal expression and not by its intrinsic protein functions. These findings provide a molecular basis for the observed specificity among E2F activators during development.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4288824/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4288824/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tsai, Shih-Yin -- Opavsky, Rene -- Sharma, Nidhi -- Wu, Lizhao -- Naidu, Shan -- Nolan, Eric -- Feria-Arias, Enrique -- Timmers, Cynthia -- Opavska, Jana -- de Bruin, Alain -- Chong, Jean-Leon -- Trikha, Prashant -- Fernandez, Soledad A -- Stromberg, Paul -- Rosol, Thomas J -- Leone, Gustavo -- K01CA102328/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01CA097189/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA121275/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA121275-03/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA121275/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01CA85619/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01HD042619/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R01HD047470/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- T32CA106196/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Aug 28;454(7208):1137-41. doi: 10.1038/nature07066.

    Genetic variation in IL28B predicts hepatitis C treatment-induced viral clearance (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-08-18
    Description: Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) affects 170 million people worldwide and is the leading cause of cirrhosis in North America. Although the recommended treatment for chronic infection involves a 48-week course of peginterferon-alpha-2b (PegIFN-alpha-2b) or -alpha-2a (PegIFN-alpha-2a) combined with ribavirin (RBV), it is well known that many patients will not be cured by treatment, and that patients of European ancestry have a significantly higher probability of being cured than patients of African ancestry. In addition to limited efficacy, treatment is often poorly tolerated because of side effects that prevent some patients from completing therapy. For these reasons, identification of the determinants of response to treatment is a high priority. Here we report that a genetic polymorphism near the IL28B gene, encoding interferon-lambda-3 (IFN-lambda-3), is associated with an approximately twofold change in response to treatment, both among patients of European ancestry (P = 1.06 x 10(-25)) and African-Americans (P = 2.06 x 10(-3)). Because the genotype leading to better response is in substantially greater frequency in European than African populations, this genetic polymorphism also explains approximately half of the difference in response rates between African-Americans and patients of European ancestry.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ge, Dongliang -- Fellay, Jacques -- Thompson, Alexander J -- Simon, Jason S -- Shianna, Kevin V -- Urban, Thomas J -- Heinzen, Erin L -- Qiu, Ping -- Bertelsen, Arthur H -- Muir, Andrew J -- Sulkowski, Mark -- McHutchison, John G -- Goldstein, David B -- England -- Nature. 2009 Sep 17;461(7262):399-401. doi: 10.1038/nature08309.

    MicroRNA-21 contributes to myocardial disease by stimulating MAP kinase signalling in fibroblasts (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-12-02
    Description: MicroRNAs comprise a broad class of small non-coding RNAs that control expression of complementary target messenger RNAs. Dysregulation of microRNAs by several mechanisms has been described in various disease states including cardiac disease. Whereas previous studies of cardiac disease have focused on microRNAs that are primarily expressed in cardiomyocytes, the role of microRNAs expressed in other cell types of the heart is unclear. Here we show that microRNA-21 (miR-21, also known as Mirn21) regulates the ERK-MAP kinase signalling pathway in cardiac fibroblasts, which has impacts on global cardiac structure and function. miR-21 levels are increased selectively in fibroblasts of the failing heart, augmenting ERK-MAP kinase activity through inhibition of sprouty homologue 1 (Spry1). This mechanism regulates fibroblast survival and growth factor secretion, apparently controlling the extent of interstitial fibrosis and cardiac hypertrophy. In vivo silencing of miR-21 by a specific antagomir in a mouse pressure-overload-induced disease model reduces cardiac ERK-MAP kinase activity, inhibits interstitial fibrosis and attenuates cardiac dysfunction. These findings reveal that microRNAs can contribute to myocardial disease by an effect in cardiac fibroblasts. Our results validate miR-21 as a disease target in heart failure and establish the therapeutic efficacy of microRNA therapeutic intervention in a cardiovascular disease setting.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Thum, Thomas -- Gross, Carina -- Fiedler, Jan -- Fischer, Thomas -- Kissler, Stephan -- Bussen, Markus -- Galuppo, Paolo -- Just, Steffen -- Rottbauer, Wolfgang -- Frantz, Stefan -- Castoldi, Mirco -- Soutschek, Jurgen -- Koteliansky, Victor -- Rosenwald, Andreas -- Basson, M Albert -- Licht, Jonathan D -- Pena, John T R -- Rouhanifard, Sara H -- Muckenthaler, Martina U -- Tuschl, Thomas -- Martin, Gail R -- Bauersachs, Johann -- Engelhardt, Stefan -- R01 CA059998/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA78711/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Dec 18;456(7224):980-4. doi: 10.1038/nature07511.

    Copy number variation at 1q21.1 associated with neuroblastoma (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-06-19
    Description: Common copy number variations (CNVs) represent a significant source of genetic diversity, yet their influence on phenotypic variability, including disease susceptibility, remains poorly understood. To address this problem in human cancer, we performed a genome-wide association study of CNVs in the childhood cancer neuroblastoma, a disease in which single nucleotide polymorphism variations are known to influence susceptibility. We first genotyped 846 Caucasian neuroblastoma patients and 803 healthy Caucasian controls at approximately 550,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms, and performed a CNV-based test for association. We then replicated significant observations in two independent sample sets comprised of a total of 595 cases and 3,357 controls. Here we describe the identification of a common CNV at chromosome 1q21.1 associated with neuroblastoma in the discovery set, which was confirmed in both replication sets. This CNV was validated by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, fluorescent in situ hybridization and analysis of matched tumour specimens, and was shown to be heritable in an independent set of 713 cancer-free parent-offspring trios. We identified a previously unknown transcript within the CNV that showed high sequence similarity to several neuroblastoma breakpoint family (NBPF) genes and represents a new member of this gene family (NBPF23). This transcript was preferentially expressed in fetal brain and fetal sympathetic nervous tissues, and the expression level was strictly correlated with CNV state in neuroblastoma cells. These data demonstrate that inherited copy number variation at 1q21.1 is associated with neuroblastoma and implicate a previously unknown neuroblastoma breakpoint family gene in early tumorigenesis of this childhood cancer.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2755253/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2755253/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Diskin, Sharon J -- Hou, Cuiping -- Glessner, Joseph T -- Attiyeh, Edward F -- Laudenslager, Marci -- Bosse, Kristopher -- Cole, Kristina -- Mosse, Yael P -- Wood, Andrew -- Lynch, Jill E -- Pecor, Katlyn -- Diamond, Maura -- Winter, Cynthia -- Wang, Kai -- Kim, Cecilia -- Geiger, Elizabeth A -- McGrady, Patrick W -- Blakemore, Alexandra I F -- London, Wendy B -- Shaikh, Tamim H -- Bradfield, Jonathan -- Grant, Struan F A -- Li, Hongzhe -- Devoto, Marcella -- Rappaport, Eric R -- Hakonarson, Hakon -- Maris, John M -- GM081519/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R00 CA151869/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA087847/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA087847-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA124709/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA124709-02/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA124709/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA87847/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32-HG000046/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U10 CA098543/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U10 CA098543-07/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U10-CA98543/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Jun 18;459(7249):987-91. doi: 10.1038/nature08035.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Oncology and Center for Childhood Cancer Research, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19536264" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Common genetic variants on 5p14.1 associate with autism spectrum disorders (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-05-01
    Description: Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) represent a group of childhood neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders characterized by deficits in verbal communication, impairment of social interaction, and restricted and repetitive patterns of interests and behaviour. To identify common genetic risk factors underlying ASDs, here we present the results of genome-wide association studies on a cohort of 780 families (3,101 subjects) with affected children, and a second cohort of 1,204 affected subjects and 6,491 control subjects, all of whom were of European ancestry. Six single nucleotide polymorphisms between cadherin 10 (CDH10) and cadherin 9 (CDH9)-two genes encoding neuronal cell-adhesion molecules-revealed strong association signals, with the most significant SNP being rs4307059 (P = 3.4 x 10(-8), odds ratio = 1.19). These signals were replicated in two independent cohorts, with combined P values ranging from 7.4 x 10(-8) to 2.1 x 10(-10). Our results implicate neuronal cell-adhesion molecules in the pathogenesis of ASDs, and represent, to our knowledge, the first demonstration of genome-wide significant association of common variants with susceptibility to ASDs.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2943511/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2943511/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, Kai -- Zhang, Haitao -- Ma, Deqiong -- Bucan, Maja -- Glessner, Joseph T -- Abrahams, Brett S -- Salyakina, Daria -- Imielinski, Marcin -- Bradfield, Jonathan P -- Sleiman, Patrick M A -- Kim, Cecilia E -- Hou, Cuiping -- Frackelton, Edward -- Chiavacci, Rosetta -- Takahashi, Nagahide -- Sakurai, Takeshi -- Rappaport, Eric -- Lajonchere, Clara M -- Munson, Jeffrey -- Estes, Annette -- Korvatska, Olena -- Piven, Joseph -- Sonnenblick, Lisa I -- Alvarez Retuerto, Ana I -- Herman, Edward I -- Dong, Hongmei -- Hutman, Ted -- Sigman, Marian -- Ozonoff, Sally -- Klin, Ami -- Owley, Thomas -- Sweeney, John A -- Brune, Camille W -- Cantor, Rita M -- Bernier, Raphael -- Gilbert, John R -- Cuccaro, Michael L -- McMahon, William M -- Miller, Judith -- State, Matthew W -- Wassink, Thomas H -- Coon, Hilary -- Levy, Susan E -- Schultz, Robert T -- Nurnberger, John I -- Haines, Jonathan L -- Sutcliffe, James S -- Cook, Edwin H -- Minshew, Nancy J -- Buxbaum, Joseph D -- Dawson, Geraldine -- Grant, Struan F A -- Geschwind, Daniel H -- Pericak-Vance, Margaret A -- Schellenberg, Gerard D -- Hakonarson, Hakon -- 1U24MH081810/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- HD055751/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD055782-01/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD055784/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- M01-RR00064/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- MH061009/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH0666730/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH080647/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH081754/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH64547/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- MH69359/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- N01-HD-4-3368/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- N01-HD-4-3383/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- NS049261/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS26630/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS36768/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01 NS026630/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01 NS026630-109001/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055748/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055751/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055751-01/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055782-01/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055784/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055784-01/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055784-010002/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055784-020002/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- P50 HD055784-030002/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH061009/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH061009-01A1/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-01/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-01S1/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-02/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-02S1/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-03/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-04/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH064547-05/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH069359/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH069359-01A2/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH080647/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH080647-11/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH081754/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH081754-01/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 MH081754-02/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS036768/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS036768-06/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS049261/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS049261-01A2/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- U54 MH066673/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U54 MH066673-01A10001/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- UL1 RR024134/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- UL1 RR024134-01/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- UL1-RR024134-03/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2009 May 28;459(7246):528-33. doi: 10.1038/nature07999.

    Autism genome-wide copy number variation reveals ubiquitin and neuronal genes (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-05-01
    Description: Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are childhood neurodevelopmental disorders with complex genetic origins. Previous studies focusing on candidate genes or genomic regions have identified several copy number variations (CNVs) that are associated with an increased risk of ASDs. Here we present the results from a whole-genome CNV study on a cohort of 859 ASD cases and 1,409 healthy children of European ancestry who were genotyped with approximately 550,000 single nucleotide polymorphism markers, in an attempt to comprehensively identify CNVs conferring susceptibility to ASDs. Positive findings were evaluated in an independent cohort of 1,336 ASD cases and 1,110 controls of European ancestry. Besides previously reported ASD candidate genes, such as NRXN1 (ref. 10) and CNTN4 (refs 11, 12), several new susceptibility genes encoding neuronal cell-adhesion molecules, including NLGN1 and ASTN2, were enriched with CNVs in ASD cases compared to controls (P = 9.5 x 10(-3)). Furthermore, CNVs within or surrounding genes involved in the ubiquitin pathways, including UBE3A, PARK2, RFWD2 and FBXO40, were affected by CNVs not observed in controls (P = 3.3 x 10(-3)). We also identified duplications 55 kilobases upstream of complementary DNA AK123120 (P = 3.6 x 10(-6)). Although these variants may be individually rare, they target genes involved in neuronal cell-adhesion or ubiquitin degradation, indicating that these two important gene networks expressed within the central nervous system may contribute to the genetic susceptibility of ASD.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2925224/" target="_blank"〉〈img

    Description: Multiple somatic rearrangements are often found in cancer genomes; however, the underlying processes of rearrangement and their contribution to cancer development are poorly characterized. Here we use a paired-end sequencing strategy to identify somatic rearrangements in breast cancer genomes. There are more rearrangements in some breast cancers than previously appreciated. Rearrangements are more frequent over gene footprints and most are intrachromosomal. Multiple rearrangement architectures are present, but tandem duplications are particularly common in some cancers, perhaps reflecting a specific defect in DNA maintenance. Short overlapping sequences at most rearrangement junctions indicate that these have been mediated by non-homologous end-joining DNA repair, although varying sequence patterns indicate that multiple processes of this type are operative. Several expressed in-frame fusion genes were identified but none was recurrent. The study provides a new perspective on cancer genomes, highlighting the diversity of somatic rearrangements and their potential contribution to cancer development.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3398135/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3398135/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stephens, Philip J -- McBride, David J -- Lin, Meng-Lay -- Varela, Ignacio -- Pleasance, Erin D -- Simpson, Jared T -- Stebbings, Lucy A -- Leroy, Catherine -- Edkins, Sarah -- Mudie, Laura J -- Greenman, Chris D -- Jia, Mingming -- Latimer, Calli -- Teague, Jon W -- Lau, King Wai -- Burton, John -- Quail, Michael A -- Swerdlow, Harold -- Churcher, Carol -- Natrajan, Rachael -- Sieuwerts, Anieta M -- Martens, John W M -- Silver, Daniel P -- Langerod, Anita -- Russnes, Hege E G -- Foekens, John A -- Reis-Filho, Jorge S -- van 't Veer, Laura -- Richardson, Andrea L -- Borresen-Dale, Anne-Lise -- Campbell, Peter J -- Futreal, P Andrew -- Stratton, Michael R -- 077012/Z/05/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 088340/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- CA089393/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Dec 24;462(7276):1005-10. doi: 10.1038/nature08645.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Hinxton, Cambridge CB10 1SA, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20033038" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
