Gene fusions involving ETS family transcription factors (mainly TMPRSS2-ERG and TMPRSS2-ETV1 fusions) have been found in ~50% of human prostate cancer cases. Although expression of TMPRSS2-ERG or TMPRSS2-ETV1 fusion alone is insufficient to initiate prostate tumorigenesis, they appear to sensitize prostate epithelial cells for cooperation with additional oncogenic mutations to drive frank prost...
PURPOSE We characterized the morphologic and functional changes in optic nerve crushed mice and evaluated electroretinogram (ERG) responses as tools to monitor retinal ganglion cell (RGC) dysfunction. METHODS We performed optic nerve crush (ONC) unilaterally in adult BALB/cJ mice. The neuronal loss in the RGC layer (GCL) and superior colliculus (SC) was determined by Nissl staining. Retinal t...
Purpose: Gene fusions leading to androgen receptor–modulated ERG overexpression occur in up to 70% of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancers (mCRPC). We assessed the association between ERG rearrangement status and clinical benefit from abiraterone acetate. Experimental Design: COU-AA-302 is a phase III trial comparing abiraterone acetate and prednisone versus prednisone in chemothera...
X-ray emission (Lx ∼ 2.5× 1039 erg s−1) from the nearby, face-on Magellanic-type irregular galaxy NGC 4449 was detected with the ROSAT PSPC and HRI. The HRI resolves seven point sources located within theD25 ellipse of the galaxy. The most luminous source is a supernova remnant detected with an intrinsic luminosity of Lx = 4.7× 1038 erg s−1. Another very luminous source (Lx = 3.1× 1038 erg s−1)...
A significant number of prostate cancers have been shown to have recurrent chromosomal rearrangements resulting in the fusion of the androgen-regulated TMPRSS2 promoter to a member of the ETS transcription factor family, most commonly ERG. This results in ERG overexpression, which may have a direct causal role in prostate tumorigenesis or progression. However, the clinical significance of the r...
The transcription factor SOX9 plays a crucial role in normal prostate development and has been suggested to drive prostate carcinogenesis in concert with PTEN inactivation. To evaluate the clinical impact of SOX9 and its relationship with key genomic alterations in prostate cancer, SOX9 expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry on a tissue microarray containing 11,152 prostate cancers. Da...
The pseudohomothallic fungus Neurospora tetrasperma is naturally resistant to the antibiotic hygromycin. We discovered that mutation of its erg-3 (sterol C-14 reductase) gene confers a hygromycin-sensitive phenotype that can be used to select transformants on hygromycin medium by complementation with the N. crassa erg-3+ and bacterial hph genes. Cotransformation of hph with PCR-amplified DNA of...
TLS-ERG fusion protein is derived from the t(16;21) translocation found in human myeloid leukemia. Here, we show that retroviral transduction of TLS-ERG confers a growth advantage to L-G myeloid progenitor cells and blocks terminal differentiation. We found that the level of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1) protein was significantly decreased in controls but unchanged in TLS-ERG-expressing cell...
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the association of recurrent molecular alterations in prostate cancer, such as ERG rearrangements and phosphatase and tensin homolog gene (PTEN) deletions, with oncologic outcomes in patients with prostate cancer treated with brachytherapy. METHODS Ninety-two men underwent I-125 brachytherapy with a 145 Gy delivered dose between 2000 and 2008. Pretreatm...
ERG (Ets-related gene) is an ETS transcription factor that has recently been shown to regulate a number of endothelial cell (EC)-restricted genes including VE-cadherin, von Willebrand factor, endoglin, and intercellular adhesion molecule-2. Our preliminary data demonstrate that unlike other ETS factors, ERG exhibits a highly EC-restricted pattern of expression in cultured primary cells and seve...
