Description
Aberrant promoter DNA hypermethylation is a hallmark of cancer; however, whether this is sufficient to drive cellular transformation in the absence of genetic mutations is not clear. To investigate this question, we use a CRISPR/dCas9 based epigenetic editing tool, where an inactive form of Cas9 is fused to DNMT3A and its regulator DNMT3L. Using this system, we show simultaneous de novo DNA methylation of genes commonly methylated in cancer, CDKN2A, RASSF1, HIC1 and PTEN in primary myoepithelial cells isolated from healthy human breast tissue. We find that promoter methylation is maintained in this system, even in the absence of the fusion construct and results in sustained repression of CDKN2A and RASSF1 transcripts which prevents cells from entering senescence. The phenotype is associated with retuned expression of a subset of genes to levels in early passage cells; however, the outgrowing myoepithelial cells are not immortal but proliferate for 18-20 population doublings before cell cycle arrest. Finally, we show that the key driver of this phenotype is repression of CDKN2A transcript p16, but prolonged proliferation is enhanced by combined hypermethylation and repression of both CDKN2A transcripts p16 and p14. This work demonstrates that hit-and-run epigenetic events can prevent senescence entry, a potential first step in the disease process. Overall design: RNA-seq experiment with n=3 biological replicates of primary myoepithelial transfection with 26x gRNAs targeting DNA methylation as described.

Description
We investigated the differential regulation patterns of type I anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb) rituximab and type II obinutuzumab on a transcriptional level. Using a panel of MCL cell lines, we determined the effects of obinutuzumab and rituximab as monotherapies as well as in combination on cell viability and proliferation.

Description
To validate the suitability of two commonly used colorectal cancer cell lines, DLD1 and SW480, as model systems to study colorectal carcinogenesis, we treated these cell lines with -catenin siRNA and identified -catenin target genes using DNA microarrays. The list of identified target genes was compared to previously published -catenin target genes found in the PubMed and the GEO databases.

Description
The goals of this study were to determine global differences in transcript expression and regulation between MM cells that are sensitive or insensitive to lovastatin-induced apoptosis. To this end, two sensitive (KMS11 and H929) and two insensitive (LP1 and SKMM1) MM cell lines treated with 20uM lovastatin or an ethanol vehicle control for 16 hours. mRNA was extracted and prepared for mRNA expression microarrays (HG-U133 Plus 2) in triplicate.

Description
Tissue-resident mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) in metabolic organs contribute to the regulation of whole body metabolism. CD301b+ MNPs are a subset of MNPs that are found in most peripheral organs including metabolic organs. In a mouse model in which CD301b+ MNPs can be selectively and transiently depleted, we examined the impact of the depletion on gene expression in the white adipose tissue and the liver.

Background: Patients with early stage non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) may benefit from treatments based on more accurate prognosis. A 15-gene prognostic classifier for NSCLC was identified from mRNA expression profiling of tumor samples from the NCIC CTG JBR.10 trial. Here, we assessed its value in an independent set of cases.
