Chromosomal instability in Barrett's esophagus is related to telomere shortening.
Barrett's esophagus is a useful model for the study of carcinogenesis, as the metaplastic columnar epithelium that replaces squamous esophageal epithelium is at elevated risk for development of adenocarcinoma. We examined telomere length and chromosomal instability (CIN) in Barrett's esophagus biopsies using fluorescence in situ hybridization. To study CIN, we selected centromere and locus-spec...
متن کاملLinking stem cells to chromosomal instability.
The discovery of a stem cell population in human neoplasias has given a new impulse to the study of the origins of cancer. The tissue compartment in which transformation first occurs likely comprises stem cells, since these cells need to consolidate the short-term and long-term requisites of tissue renewal. Because of their unique role, stem cells have a combination of characteristics that make...
متن کاملMechanisms of Chromosomal Instability
Most solid tumors are aneuploid, having a chromosome number that is not a multiple of the haploid number, and many frequently mis-segregate whole chromosomes in a phenomenon called chromosomal instability (CIN). CIN positively correlates with poor patient prognosis, indicating that reduced mitotic fidelity contributes to cancer progression by increasing genetic diversity among tumor cells. Here...
متن کاملOncogenic transformation by SEI-1 is associated with chromosomal instability.
Amplification of SEI-1, a cell cycle regulatory gene at 19q13.1, is commonly detected in ovarian cancer, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer. In the present study, the oncogenic potential of SEI-1 was shown by anchorage-independent growth and tumor formation in nude mice with SEI-1-transfected NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells. Silencing of SEI-1 gene expression by small interf...
متن کاملDisease Control Priorities Third Edition Is Published: A Theory of Change Is Needed for Translating Evidence to Health Policy
How can evidence from economic evaluations of the type the Disease Control Priorities project have synthesized be translated to better priority setting? This evidence provides insights into how investing in health, particularly though priority interventions and expanded access to health insurance and prepaid care, can not only save lives but also help alleviate poverty and provide financial ris...
