Epigenetics in radiation-induced fibrosis.

TL;DR: The synopsis illustrates the complexity of radiation-induced fibrosis and reveals the need for investigations to further unravel its molecular mechanisms, and points out the important role for epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation, microRNAs and histone modifications in the development of this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic regulation of diacylglycerol kinase alpha promotes radiation-induced fibrosis

TL;DR: DNA methylation profiling of dermal fibroblasts obtained from breast cancer patients prior to irradiation identifies differences associated with fibrosis as well as an epigenetically deregulated kinase involved in radiation response that may serve as a marker and therapeutic target for personalized radiotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

TET-mediated hydroxymethylcytosine at the Pparγ locus is required for initiation of adipogenic differentiation.

TL;DR: TET proteins, particularly TET2, were required for adipogenesis by modulating DNA methylation at the P parγ locus, subsequently by inducing Pparγ gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic and Posttranscriptional Regulation of CD16 Expression during Human NK Cell Development

TL;DR: A system of FCGR3A regulation in human NK cells is proposed in which CpG dinucleotide sequences and concurrent DNA methylation confer developmental and cell type–specific transcriptional regulation, whereas miR-218 provides an additional layer of posttranscriptional regulation during the maturation process.
