TLDR
It is shown that mice with loss of function mutations in PRC2 components display enhanced HSC/progenitor population activity, whereas mutations that disrupt PRC1 or pleiohomeotic repressive complex are associated with HSC or progenitor cell defects.

The role of histone methyltransferase EZH2 in myelodysplastic syndromes

TL;DR: The molecular mechanisms of EZH2 in tumorigenesis and the role of E zh2 in MDS are studied to improve epigenetic therapy in M DS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptome analysis of genes regulated by cholesterol loading in two strains of mouse macrophages associates lysosome pathway and ER stress response with atherosclerosis susceptibility.

TL;DR: Three transcripts were highly up-regulated by cholesterol in AKR and either down-regulated or unchanged in loaded DBA/2 macrophages, thus associated a robust ER stress response with atherosclerosis resistance.

Replacement of dietary soy- with air classified faba bean protein concentrate alters the hepatic transcriptome in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr.

TL;DR: This study demonstrated a dose-dependent metabolic response to a plant ingredient and was the first to compare the nutrigenomic transcriptional responses after substitution of terrestrial feed ingredients such as BPC and SPC without withdrawal of marine ingredients.

Polycomb complexes redundantly maintain epidermal stem cell identity during development

TL;DR: The functional contribution of PRC1 and PRC2 to gene repression has been a subject of debate, and understanding of its physiological significance requires further studies as discussed by the authors, using the developing murine epidermis as a paradigm, uncovered a previously unappreciated functional redundancy between Polycomb complexes.

Linear Models and Empirical Bayes Methods for Assessing Differential Expression in Microarray Experiments

TL;DR: The hierarchical model of Lonnstedt and Speed (2002) is developed into a practical approach for general microarray experiments with arbitrary numbers of treatments and RNA samples and the moderated t-statistic is shown to follow a t-distribution with augmented degrees of freedom.

Role of Histone H3 Lysine 27 Methylation in Polycomb-Group Silencing

TL;DR: The purification and characterization of an EED-EZH2 complex, the human counterpart of the Drosophila ESC-E(Z) complex, is reported, and it is demonstrated that the complex specifically methylates nucleosomal histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3-K27).

Polycomb complexes repress developmental regulators in murine embryonic stem cells

TL;DR: It is shown that PcG proteins directly repress a large cohort of developmental regulators in murine ES cells, the expression of which would otherwise promote differentiation, and dynamic repression of developmental pathways by Polycomb complexes may be required for maintaining ES cell pluripotency and plasticity during embryonic development.
