BACKGROUND Down's syndrome (DS) is a genetic disease with chromosome abnormality due to the increasing chromosome 21. This study focused on the clinical application value of ERG methylation level in blood of pregnant women as a biomarker in Down's syndrome. MATERIAL AND METHODS The sham group consisted of 210 nonpregnant women, the positive control group consisted of 33 women with a delivery hi...
The Ets-related gene (ERG) is an Ets-transcription factor required for normal blood stem cell development. ERG expression is down-regulated during early T-lymphopoiesis but maintained in T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), where it is recognized as an independent risk factor for adverse outcome. However, it is unclear whether ERG is directly involved in the pathogenesis of T-ALL and how its...
PURPOSE Our aim was to assess the frequency of ERG overexpression and TMPRSS2:ERG rearrangement in prostate cancer and their association with clinicopathologic variables and outcome. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The presence of the TMPRSS2:ERG rearrangement was studied by reverse transcription-PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization in 19 prostate cancer xenografts and 7 prostate cancer cell lines....
The development of prostate cancer and its progression to castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) after antiandrogen ablation therapy are driven by persistent biological activity of androgen receptor (AR) signaling. Moreover, studies have shown that more than 50% of human prostate cancers overexpress ERG (v-ets avian erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene related gene) due to AR-regulated TMPRSS...
A large percentage of prostate cancers harbor TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusions, leading to aberrant overexpression of the transcription factor ERG. The target genes deregulated by this rearrangement, however, remain mostly unknown. To address this subject we performed genome-wide mRNA expression analysis on 6 non-malignant prostate samples and 24 prostate carcinomas with (n = 16) and without (n = 8) TM...
BACKGROUND Preclinical data suggest that TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusions, present in about 50% of prostate cancers, may be a surrogate for DNA repair status and therefore a biomarker for DNA-damaging agents. To test this hypothesis, we examined whether TMPRSS2-ERG status was associated with biochemical failure after clinical induction of DNA damage following image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). METHODS...
Genomic rearrangements commonly occur in many types of cancers and often initiate or alter the progression of disease. Here we describe an in vivo mouse model that recapitulates the most frequent rearrangement in prostate cancer, the fusion of the promoter region of TMPRSS2 with the coding region of the transcription factor, ERG. A recombinant bacterial artificial chromosome including an extend...
The ets gene superfamily encodes a class of transcription factors that bind to a purine rich sequence through a 85 amino-acid ETS domain. Among them, the human erg gene has been found to be involved in Ewing's sarcoma, primitive neurectodermal tumour of childhood and acute myeloid leukaemia. Nevertheless, little is known about human erg expression. Northern blot analyses have shown a human erg ...
The erythroblast transformation-specific (ETS) family of transcription factors plays important roles in both physiological and pathological conditions. Even though many studies have focused on single ETS factors within a single tissue and within the context of specific promoters, the functional impact of multiple ETS members present within a specific cell type has not yet been investigated, esp...
Background: Preclinical data suggest that TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusions, present in about 50% of prostate cancers, may be a surrogate for DNA repair status and therefore a biomarker for DNA-damaging agents. To test this hypothesis, we examined whether TMPRSS2-ERG status was associated with biochemical failure after clinical induction of DNA damage following image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). Methods:...
