A Genome-Wide Methylation Approach Identifies a New Hypermethylated Gene Panel in Ulcerative Colitis
The cause of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is still unknown, but there is growing evidence that environmental factors such as epigenetic changes can contribute to the disease etiology. The aim of this study was to identify newly hypermethylated genes in ulcerative colitis (UC) using a genome-wide DNA methylation approach. Using an Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array, we screened the ...
متن کاملIdentification of hypo- and hypermethylated genes related to atherosclerosis by a genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation.
Epigenetic modification, particularly changes in DNA methylation at gene promoters, is implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. However, the analysis of DNA methylation in atherosclerosis has been limited to a few selected candidate genes. In this study, we therefore performed a genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation in the atherosclerotic human aorta. A total of 48 post-mortem human...
متن کاملGenome-wide DNA methylation analysis identifies hypomethylated genes regulated by FOXP3 in human regulatory T cells.
Regulatory T cells (Treg) prevent the emergence of autoimmune disease. Prototypic natural Treg (nTreg) can be reliably identified by demethylation at the Forkhead-box P3 (FOXP3) locus. To explore the methylation landscape of nTreg, we analyzed genome-wide methylation in human naive nTreg (rTreg) and conventional naive CD4(+) T cells (Naive). We detected 2315 differentially methylated cytosine-g...
متن کاملEffect of Cold Atmospheric Plasma on Gene Expression and Methylation of Genes Involved in Colorectal Cancer
Background and purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is ranked as the second most common cancer in men and the third most common cancer in women worldwide. Routine treatments have many side effects and little efficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) on epigenetic changes of some genes involved in CRC progression. Materials and methods: Prolif...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Association between CIMP and BRAFV600E in Colorectal Cancer by DNA Methylation Profiling
A CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) is displayed by a distinct subset of colorectal cancers with a high frequency of DNA hypermethylation in a specific group of CpG islands. Recent studies have shown that an activating mutation of BRAF (BRAF(V600E)) is tightly associated with CIMP, raising the question of whether BRAF(V600E) plays a causal role in the development of CIMP or whether CIMP pr...
