Novel epigenetic-metabolic inhibitor combination treatment blocks platinum-induced ovarian cancer stem cell enrichment

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrated that acute platinum treatment induced a DNA damage-dependent decrease in BRCA1 levels through BRCCA1 promoter DNA hypermethylation, and increased expression of NAMPT, the rate limiting regulator of NAD+ production from the salvage pathway.
Journal Article

Dysregulation of TGFβ/Smad4 signaling and contribution of a CpG island methylator phenotype in ovarian cancer

TL;DR: This study combined both chromatin immunoprecipitation microarray (ChIP-chip) and differential methylation hybridization (DMH) to investigate this epigenetic mechanism in ovarian cancer and found patients with high degrees of concurrent hypermethylation had significantly shorter progression-free survival.

Complete Transcriptome RNA-Seq

TL;DR: This protocol utilizes duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) to remove abundant ribosomal RNA sequences while retaining other types of RNA for superior transcriptome profiling from low quantity input.
