Journal ArticleDOI

Long non-coding RNA HOTAIR reprograms chromatin state to promote cancer metastasis

TL;DR: It is shown that lincRNAs in the HOX loci become systematically dysregulated during breast cancer progression, indicating that l incRNAs have active roles in modulating the cancer epigenome and may be important targets for cancer diagnosis and therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Module map of stem cell genes guides creation of epithelial cancer stem cells.

TL;DR: Activation of an ESC-like transcriptional program in differentiated adult cells may induce pathologic self-renewal characteristic of cancer stem cells, as revealed by a gene module map constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The formation and maintenance of the definitive endoderm lineage in the mouse: involvement of HNF3/forkhead proteins.

TL;DR: The discovery that the rat hepatocyte transcription factor HNF3 is similar to the Drosophila forkhead gene, which plays a critical role in gut development in the fly, led us to isolate genes containing the H NF3/forkhead (HFH) domain that are expressed in mouse endoderm development and discover a novel HFH-containing gene.
