LINE-1 retrotransposon encoded ORF1p expression and promoter methylation in oral squamous cell carcinoma: a pilot study
Publication date: Available online 10 February 2020Source: Cancer GeneticsAuthor(s): Savita Budania, Debpali Sur, Jitendra Nangal, Sofia Pilli, Koel Mukherjee, Manash Biswas, Ramasare Prasad, Prabhat K. Mandal, Shilpi SaxenaAbstractOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is highly predominant in India due to excessive use of tobacco. Here we investigated Long INterpersed Element 1 (LINE or L1) retrotransposon activity in OSCC samples in the same population. There are almost 500,000 copies of L1 occupied around 30%  of the human genome. Although most of them are inactive, around 150-200 copies are actively jumping in a human g...

Enrichment of atypical hyperdiploidy and IKZF1 deletions detected by SNP-microarray in high-risk Australian AIEOP-BFM B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia cohort
Publication date: Available online 10 February 2020Source: Cancer GeneticsAuthor(s): Nadine K Berry, Rodney J Scott, Rosemary Sutton, Tamara Law, Toby N Trahair, Luce Dalla Pozza, Petra Ritchie, Draga Barbaric, Anoop K EnjetiAbstractAcute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common childhood malignancy with the majority of patients being classified as B-cell lineage (B-ALL). The sub-classification of B-ALL is based on genomic architecture. Recent studies have demonstrated the capability of SNP-microarrays to detect genomic changes in B-ALL which cannot be observed by conventional cytogenetic methods. In current clinic...

Kinetics of DNA damage repair response accompanying initial hepadnavirus-host genomic integration in woodchuck hepatitis virus infection of hepatocyte
Publication date: Available online 5 February 2020Source: Cancer GeneticsAuthor(s): Ranjit Chauhan, Tomasz I. MichalakAbstractMechanism of initial hepatitis B virus (HBV) integrations and kinetics of DNA repair immediately after infection remain essentially unknown impairing understanding of hepadnaviral oncogenesis. WCM260 hepatocytes susceptible to HBV-compatible woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) were examined from 15 min to 72 hours post-infection (p.i.). WHV strongly induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), transiently inducible nitric oxide (iNOS) and DNA damage from 15 min p.i. All initial WHV-host fusions had the head-t...
