Chromatin States Accurately Classify Cell Differentiation Stages
Gene expression is controlled by the concerted interactions between transcription factors and chromatin regulators. While recent studies have identified global chromatin state changes across cell-types, it remains unclear to what extent these changes are co-regulated during cell-differentiation. Here we present a comprehensive computational analysis by assembling a large dataset containing geno...
متن کاملInvestigations proposed to accurately classify chronic gastritis.
Patients of chronic gastritis should be investigated with gastric mucosal biopsy, parietal cell antibody, intrinsic factor antibody, Helicobacter pylori antibody, urea breath test or faecal antigen test for Helicobacter pylori, to accurately classify them. The results of these tests will indicate Helicobacter pylori infection (present or past), the role of hereditary factor (intrinsic factor an...
متن کاملMutations in Nonastrocytic Human Brain Tumors
Genomic DNA from 51 primary human brain tumors was screened for the presence of mutations in the tumor suppressor gene, p53, using the polymerase chain reaction and single strand conformation polymorphism analysis, followed by direct DNA sequencing. Mutations leading to an amino acid change were found in 2 of 17 (12%) oligodendrogliomas and 2 of 19 (11%) medulloblastomas but none of 15 ependymo...
متن کاملDriver and passenger mutations in cancer.
Next-generation sequencing has allowed identification of millions of somatic mutations and epigenetic changes in cancer cells. A key challenge in interpreting cancer genomes and epigenomes is distinguishing which genetic and epigenetic changes are drivers of cancer development. Frequency-based and function-based approaches have been developed to identify candidate drivers; we discuss the advant...
