近日,由Mayo Clinic肿瘤学家领导的国际研究小组发现了一种鉴定并有可能阻止许多晚期癌症继续进展的新方法,相关研究成果发表在国际学术期刊Oncogene上。

 
这篇文章主要对肾脏癌症及其转移进行了重点研究。但在之前一些对不同癌症类型中相同表观遗传印记的研究已经表明利用这种共同的信号途径或许可以帮助提高对晚期癌症的诊断率和治疗效果。
 
研究人员这样说道:“如果把晚期癌症看作一辆行驶的汽车,我们开发的大多数药物都瞄准了汽车轮胎的不同位置,但有时候会打偏,不能使这辆汽车完全停住。但我们认为我们已经发现了控制癌症的生物学引擎,通过这一机制或许能够将癌症阻止在它的跑道上。”
 
研究人员提到的这一机制是与转移性癌症中有关的一种表观遗传印记--H3K36me3,这种甲基化修饰的缺失可为鉴定侵袭性癌症,找到最好的个体治疗药物提供重要信息。这项研究首次将这一表观遗传印记与病人组织联系在一起,研究人员除了对肾脏癌症与H3K36me3缺失的关系进行了研究之外,还试图将这一机制扩展到其他类型的癌症中。
 
表观遗传学是一种复杂的生物学过程,细胞可通过阅读其基因及表观遗传修饰传递的信息,确定其将发育成哪种组织。癌细胞常常通过挟持细胞内正常的表观遗传机制,影响细胞的多种生物学过程,导致细胞更具侵袭性。因此,这项研究发现了H3K36me3在癌症发生发展中的重要作用,对于晚期癌症的诊断和治疗具有比较重要的意义。

Mol Cell:从表观遗传看肿瘤异质性

本篇综述只要探讨表观遗传在肿瘤异质性的形成和维持中发挥的作用。为什么要关注表观遗传呢?这是因为表观遗传不同于普通的信号传导,它的改变是可遗传的,更有可能形成具有稳定表型的细胞亚群。而另一方面,在自然的情况下,细胞自发发生基因突变的概率是很低的,而相比之下,表观遗传改变发生的概率就高地多,提示表观遗传可能很大程度地参与了肿瘤的前生今世。 表观遗传学的改变发生在肿瘤进展的哪个阶段呢?虽然关于

Nat Commun:英研究表明痛觉敏感性并非全由先天决定

人的痛觉敏感性通常被认为主要是“天生”的,很难受后天影响而有所改变。但英国的一项新研究显示,生活方式和环境因素可通过“表观遗传”变化来改变基因表达,从而影响人们对疼痛的敏感性。 英国伦敦大学国王学院等机构的研究人员在新一期《自然—通讯》杂志上报告说,他们征集了25对同卵双胞胎进行痛觉敏感性测试,受试者手臂上装有自动升温的热探测器,他们在感觉探测器变烫时须按下按钮。 测试结果显示,虽然同卵双胞胎

Nature:引发孤独症谱系障碍的新型分子机制

近日,刊登在国际杂志Nature上的一篇研究论文中,来自纽约大学医学中心(NYU Langone Medical Center)的研究人员通过研究发现,DNA的化学修饰——表观遗传改变可以激活或者抑制参与孤独症谱系障碍(ASDs)及早期大脑发育基因的表达。 研究者表示,小鼠的表观遗传改变会移除蛋白复合物的基因抑制作用,从而将这种复合物转变成为基因活性表达的角色;本文研究揭示了编码自闭症易感候

Nat Genet:维生素C可改变重要表观遗传修饰酶Tet1功能

中科院广州生物医药与健康研究院科学家发现维生素C可改变重要表观遗传修饰酶的功能。相关成果10月27日在线发表于《自然—遗传学》。   据介绍,为使细胞具备各种各样的功能,人体内有许多控制基因的开关,DNA上的甲基化(指胞嘧啶的5位甲基化,5mC)就是其中一个关键性的开关,直接与基因沉默相关。不过,目前学界对去甲基化过程仍不甚明了。   此前有研究发现,Tet蛋白能将5m

Nature:美揭示基因AUTS2与自闭症关联

根据发表在12月18日《自然》(Nature)杂志上的一项新研究,一些DNA包装化学修饰(称作为表观遗传改变)可以激活或抑制与自闭症谱系障碍(autism spectrum disorder ,ASD)和早期脑发育相关的基因。 来自美国纽约大学Langone医学中心的生物化学家们发现,在小鼠和一些实验室实验中这些表观遗传改变除去了长期以来已知发挥基因抑制作用

Nature Commun:表观遗传与乳腺癌症干细胞新研究

近日,来自美国的科学家在国际学术期刊nature communication在线发表了一项科研进展,他们发现甲基转移酶DNMT1在乳腺干细胞和癌症干细胞维持方面具有重要作用,同时DNMT1靶基因ISL1在乳腺肿瘤和癌症干细胞中显著下调,其过表达会抑制乳腺肿瘤生长。   哺乳动物在怀孕和泌乳期,乳腺干细胞能够维持乳腺上皮组织的自我更新。在自我更新过程中,DNA甲基化为维持细胞记忆提供了
