Journal ArticleDOI
Donor-Derived Brain Tumor Following Neural Stem Cell Transplantation in an Ataxia Telangiectasia Patient
Ninette Amariglio,Abraham Hirshberg,Bernd W. Scheithauer,Yoram Cohen,Ron Loewenthal,Luba Trakhtenbrot,Nurit Paz,Maya Koren-Michowitz,Dalia Waldman,Leonor Leider-Trejo,Amos Toren,Shlomi Constantini,Gideon Rechavi +12 more
TL;DR: The findings here suggest that neuronal stem/progenitor cells may be involved in gliomagenesis and provide the first example of a donor-derived brain tumor complicating neural stem cell therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Altered adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing in human cancer
Nurit Paz,Erez Y. Levanon,Erez Y. Levanon,Ninette Amariglio,Ninette Amariglio,Amy B. Heimberger,Zvi Ram,Shlomi Constantini,Zohar S. Barbash,Zohar S. Barbash,Konstantin Adamsky,Michal Safran,Michal Safran,Avi Hirschberg,Avi Hirschberg,Meir Krupsky,Meir Krupsky,Issachar Ben-Dov,Issachar Ben-Dov,Simona Cazacu,Tom Mikkelsen,Chaya Brodie,Chaya Brodie,Eli Eisenberg,Gideon Rechavi +24 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that A-to-I RNA editing may serve as an additional epigenetic mechanism relevant to cancer development and progression, and altered epigenetic control was recently shown to play a central role in oncogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA-editing-mediated exon evolution
Galit Lev-Maor,Rotem Sorek,Rotem Sorek,Erez Y. Levanon,Erez Y. Levanon,Nurit Paz,Eli Eisenberg,Gil Ast +7 more
TL;DR: The results show that the abundant RNA editing of Alu sequences can be recruited as a mechanism supporting the birth of new exons in the human genome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for large diversity in the human transcriptome created by Alu RNA editing
Michal Barak,Erez Y. Levanon,Eli Eisenberg,Nurit Paz,Gideon Rechavi,George M. Church,Ramit Mehr +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that editing appears at many more sites than detected by earlier genomic screens, resulting in immense transcript diversity that eclipses alternative splicing as mechanism of transcriptome diversity, although with less impact on the proteome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does RNA editing play a role in the development of urinary bladder cancer
Dorit E Zilberman,Michal Safran,Nurit Paz,Ninette Amariglio,Amos J. Simon,Edward Fridman,Nir Kleinmann,Jacob Ramon,Gideon Rechavi +8 more
TL;DR: It can be determined that RNA editing is an epigenetic mechanism that does not participate in the evolution of urinary bladder cancer.
