Identifying toggle genes from transcriptome-wide scatter: A new perspective for biological regulation

Alessandro Giuliani et al.

Summary: The study investigates the transcriptome-wide scatter of 23 cell types and conditions across different levels of biological complexity, focusing on genes that act as toggle switches between pairwise replicates of the same cell type. It is found that the proportion of toggle genes dramatically increases from unicellular to multicellular organization, with a significant portion being non-coding genes such as tRNA, rRNA, lncRNA, sncRNA, and pseudogenes. The presence of disease associated microRNAs, pseudogenes, and uncharacterized transcripts in both development and cancer cells suggests toggle genes as a novel component creating transcriptome-wide variability.

HJURP Promotes Malignant Progression and Mediates Sensitivity to Cisplatin and WEE1-inhibitor in Serous Ovarian Cancer

Zhiyuan Dou et al.

Summary: This study found that HJURP is overexpressed in ovarian cancer and is associated with unfavorable prognosis. Knockdown of HJURP inhibits proliferation, metastasis, and induces cell stagnation in ovarian cancer cells. Mechanistically, HJURP regulates WEE1 through the MYC pathway, affecting chemosensitivity and DNA repair in ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, silencing HJURP enhances sensitivity to cisplatin and improves the synergistic effect of combined therapy with cisplatin and AZD1775 in ovarian cancer cells.

Every gene can (and possibly will) be associated with cancer

Joao Pedro de Magalhaes

Summary: Most human genes have been studied in the context of cancer, which justifies the study of almost any human gene based on existing literature. These findings also have implications for large-scale analyses.

Global genome decompaction leads to stochastic activation of gene expression as a first step toward fate commitment in human hematopoietic cells

Romuald Parmentier et al.

Summary: When human cord blood-derived CD34+ cells differentiate, they go through rapid and dynamic changes in morphology and molecular processes. These changes include a transitory phase called multilineage-primed state, which is characterized by mixed gene expression profiles in each cell. The aim of this study was to understand the mechanisms of establishment and exit from this transitory state. The researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing and ATAC-seq to investigate and found two phases. In the first phase, there was a rapid and global chromatin decompaction, leading to enhanced and variable transcriptional profiles. The second phase involved chromatin closure and down-regulation of gene transcription, resulting in distinct expression profiles for different cell subpopulations.

An Epigenetic LINE-1-Based Mechanism in Cancer

Patrizia Lavia et al.

Summary: In the past fifty years, significant progress has been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms of cancer and developing effective therapies. Research suggests that the onset and progression of cancer are influenced by a stress-responsive epigenetic mechanism, resulting in genome plasticity and global gene expression reprogramming. These findings improve our understanding of cancer and may lead to new treatment approaches.

Gene co-expression in the interactome: moving from correlation toward causation via an integrated approach to disease module discovery

Paola Paci et al.

Summary: This study integrates co-expression network analysis with human interactome network to predict novel disease genes and relationships. Switch genes associated with specific disorders tend to form subnetworks in the interactome network, allowing efficient screening of potential new disease gene associations. The findings provide insights on elucidating the molecular basis of human disease and revealing commonalities between seemingly unrelated diseases.

A single-cell RNA expression atlas of normal, preneoplastic and tumorigenic states in the human breast

Bhupinder Pal et al.

Summary: Global changes in breast heterogeneity were examined across different states through single-cell transcriptome analysis, revealing notable variations in the stroma of post-menopausal women and a discrete subset of cycling cells in tumor samples. Comparison between preneoplastic BRCA1(+/-) tissue and tumors highlighted global changes in the immune microenvironment. Proliferative CD8(+) T cells were found to characterize certain breast cancer subtypes, suggesting potential differences in immunotherapy targets.

Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Young Patients Show Higher Rates of EGFR Amplification: Implications for Novel Personalized Therapy

Laveniya Satgunaseelan et al.

Summary: A study identified a molecular signature of EGFR amplification and increased EGFR RNA abundance specific to young patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), suggesting EGFR amplification as a potential therapeutic target in this subset. Patient-derived cell lines with EGFR amplification showed sensitivity to the second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor afatinib. Testing for EGFR amplification could lead to more personalized treatment approaches and improved outcomes for younger OSCC patients.

Impact of preoperative antibiotics and other variables on integrated microbiome-host transcriptomic data generated from colorectal cancer resections

Sarah A. Malik et al.

Summary: Integrative multi-omic approaches are increasingly used in the study of complex human diseases. Short-term preoperative antibiotics have been shown to impact the analysis of multi-omic datasets generated from colorectal cancer resection samples. The study found significant effects of preoperative antibiotics on microbial beta-diversity, while other variables such as tumor location, diabetes, and race did not show significant impact.

Reconciling Non-Genetic Plasticity with Somatic Evolution in Cancer

Sui Huang

Summary: Current understanding of tumor progression goes beyond somatic Darwinian evolution, exploring the more complex aspects of cancer progression through non-genetic mechanisms, including cell phenotype plasticity caused by alternative gene expression states. Treatment may not only fail to suppress malignant tumor evolution, but may also induce cell transitions to more aggressive gene expression states.
