细胞周期调节蛋白A1即细胞周期素A1(cyclinA1,CCNA1)在细胞周期调节中起关键作用,而细胞周期与肿瘤发生的关系是近年来肿瘤研究的热门课题之一。研究发现,CCNA1与恶性肿瘤的发生、生长、侵袭和转移等有着密切的关系,许多肿瘤的发生与CCNA1基因的启动子甲基化异常有直接或间接的关系,但在不同肿瘤中其发生机制并非相同。本文就CCNA1基因与肿瘤发生的相关性进行综述。 相似文献

DNA甲基化是重要的表观遗传修饰,主要发生在DNA的CpG岛. DNA的甲基化通过DNA甲基转移酶(DNA methyltransferases, DNMTs)完成. DNA甲基化参与了细胞分化、基因组稳定性、X染色体失活、基因印记等多种细胞生物学过程.单基因水平及基因组范围内的DNA甲基化改变在肿瘤发生发展中亦发挥重要作用. 抑癌基因的异常甲基化引起的表达抑制,可导致肿瘤细胞的增殖失控和侵袭转移,并参与肿瘤组织的血管生成过程.在许多肿瘤的研究中都发现了基因组整体DNA低甲基化所导致的染色体不稳定性. 本文从DNA的异常高甲基化和低甲基化两方面论述了DNA甲基化在细胞恶变发生发展过程中的改变及其影响,并阐述了DNA甲基化改变在肿瘤诊断和治疗中的作用. 相似文献

表观遗传学分子机制,其中包括DNA甲基化,通过细胞分裂逐代遗传,在基因转录调控中发挥着重要作用.尽管DNA甲基化是正常哺乳动物胚胎形成所必需的,但在致癌作用中却经常观察到DNA的低-和高-甲基化现象.DNA甲基化在癌症的发生和发展中起着重要作用,它使得许多抑癌基因转录沉默,最终导致癌基因的无限增殖化.许多肿瘤抑制基因启动子区异常甲基化与乳腺癌的形成密切相关,比如ER,p16,APC,RASSFlA,BRCAl等.DNA甲基化是可逆的过程,通过DNA去甲基化制剂,可以使基因恢复正常表达功能.因此,DNA去甲基化制剂在乳腺癌的治疗中具有重要临床意义. 相似文献

乳腺癌是女性最常见的恶性肿瘤之一。DNA甲基化作为哺乳动物细胞基因组修饰和表达调控的表观遗传学方式,在肿瘤的发生发展过程中总体水平降低,但同时又伴随某些基因的高甲基化。在乳腺癌中,多种关键基因的表达缺失都与其CpG岛高甲基化有关。 相似文献

In the tested samples of sporadic breast cancer (100 cases), hypermethylation of CpG sequences located in ERalpha promoter was observed in 62 cases. It correlated with: (i) deficiency of ERalpha protein in 45%, (ii) hypermethylation of BRCA1 promoter in 95%, and (iii) nonmethylated E-cadherin promoter in 90%. Fifty-eight percent of the patients with nonmethylated E-cadherin promoter (56 cases) did not show metastasis to lymphatic nodes. The analysis of the methylation level of the promoter of ERalpha, BRCA1, and E-cadherin, frequently connected with their activity, shows that it can be an important parameter in the diagnosis and therapeutic strategies in sporadic breast cancer. 相似文献

Histone modifying factors are functional components of chromatin and play a role in gene regulation. The expression level of JMJD2B, a histone demethylase, is notably up-regulated in cancer tissues. Upregulation of JMJD2B promotes cancer cell proliferation under hypoxic conditions through target gene expression. Here, we describe the patterns of histone methylation and JMJD2B expression under various stressed conditions, such as hypoxia and radiation, in a gastric cancer cell line. JMJD2B expression in AGS cells was actively regulated by hypoxia and radiation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated that binding of JMJD2B on the cyclin A1 (CCNA1) promoter resulted in CCNA1 upregulation under hypoxic conditions. Furthermore, we confirmed that AGS cell proliferation was directly affected by JMJD2B and CCNA1 expression by performing experiments with JMJD2B depleted cells. Interestingly, the effects of JMJD2B on cell growth under hypoxia were remarkably repressed after gamma-ray irradiation. These results suggest that JMJD2B may play a central role in gastric cancer cell growth and might constitute a novel therapeutic target to overcome hypoxia-induced radio-resistance, thereby improving the efficiency of radiation therapy. 相似文献

The frequency of APC, RASSF1A, RARbeta, CDH1 and CDH13 gene promoter methylation in samples of DNA isolated from breast and lung patient plasma was studied in order to develop the noninvasive tumor-specific DNA detection method. Methylation of at least one of genes was detected in extracellular DNA from most of the cancer blood specimens. The results obtained indicate that promoter hypermethylation of a number of marker genes represents a promising serum marker for early breast and lung cancer detection. 相似文献

p21 (Waf-1) is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that plays essential roles in cell growth arrest, terminal differentiation, and apoptosis. Statistically significant difference in the level of methylation of p21/CIP1 (p < 0. 05) between the patients with breast cancer and the healthy controls was observed. Risk of breast cancer was increased in patients with hypermethylated p21/CIP1 promoter by 2.31-fold (OR = 2.31, 95 % CI 1.95–2.74). The downregulation of p21/CIP1 mRNA expression was statistically significant in patients with methylated promoter (p < 0.00) in comparison to patients with unmethylated genes. Downregulation of mRNA expression of p21/CIP1 was up to 79 % due to promoter hypermethylation. We examined several p21/CIP1 genotypes in the patients with breast cancer and found that there is no significant association of these p21/CIP1 genotypes with the risk of developing breast cancer. However, a significant 2.21-fold increase in the chance of developing breast cancer was observed in the candidates carrying at least one allele Arg mutant in p21/CIP1 genotype (i.e., Ser/Arg + Arg/Arg) with age >50 (OR = 2.21; 95 % CI 1.03–4.79). 相似文献

As one of major epigenetic changes responsible for tumor suppressor gene inactivation in the development of cancer, promoter hypermethylation was proposed as a marker to define novel tumor suppressor genes. In the current study we identified ZIC1 (Zic family member 1, odd-paired Drosophila homolog) as a novel tumor suppressor gene silenced through promoter hypermethylation in gastric cancer, the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. In all of gastric cancer cells lines examined, ZIC1 expression was downregulated and such downregulation was accompanied with the hypermethylation of ZIC1 promoter. Demethylation treatment with 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine (Aza) reversed ZIC1 downregulation, highlighting the importance of promoter methylation to ZIC1 downregulation in gastric cancer cells. Notably, ZIC1 expression was significantly downregulated in primary gastric carcinoma tissues in comparison with non-tumor adjacent gastric tissues (p < 0.01). Accordingly, promoter methylation of ZIC1 was frequently detected in primary gastric carcinoma tissues (94.6%, 35/37) but not normal gastric tissues, indicating that promoter hypermethylation mediated ZIC1 downregulation may play an important role in gastric carcinogenesis. Indeed, ectopic expression of ZIC1 led to the growth inhibition of gastric cancer cells through the induction of S-phase cell cycle arrest (p < 0.01). Our results revealed ZIC1 as a novel candidate tumor suppressor gene downregulated through promoter hypermethylation in gastric cancer. 相似文献

Germline mutations in BRCA1 account for a low proportion of hereditary cases in diverse populations. Several efforts have been made to find new genes involved in the inheritance of breast cancer with no success until today. The participation of BRCA1 in the development of breast cancer has been proposed in several studies where hypermethylation of its promoter and a decrease in expression has been reported for sporadic cases and one study on familial cases. To explore the participation of BRCA1 in hereditary carcinogenesis through a different mechanism than the inheritance of germline mutations, we studied the methylation status of its promoter in breast tumors, from patients previously screened for BRCA1/BRCA2 germline mutations. We also determined the presence of the BRCA1 protein in these tumors and correlated both events with tumor grade, hormone receptors and ERBB2 presence. Promoter hypermethylation of the BRCA1 gene was detected in 51% of our biopsies, among which 67% did not express the respective protein. This result leads us to suggest that hypermethylation could be considered as an inactivating mechanism for BRCA1 expression, either as a first or second hit. Moreover, a number of biopsies with absence of expression on BRCA1 showed negative detection of estrogen and progesterone receptors, a similar phenotype to BRCA1 mutated breast tumors. 相似文献
