1. Stability of XIST repression in relation to genomic imprinting following global genome demethylation in a human cell line
DNA methylation is essential in X chromosome inactivation and genomic imprinting, maintaining repression of XIST in the active X chromosome and monoallelic repression of imprinted genes. Disruption of the DNA methyltransferase genes DNMT1 and DNMT3B in the HCT116 cell line (DKO cells) leads to global DNA hypomethylation and biallelic expression of the imprin

2. Avaliação dos Efeitos Antineoplásicos da Zebularina em Linhagens Pediátricas de Leucemia Linfoide Aguda. / Evaluation of Antineoplastic Effects of Zebularine on Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cell Lines.
A leucemia linfóide aguda (LLA) é a neoplasia hematológica mais comum na infância e representa uma doença heterogênea em relação à biologia e ao prognóstico e seu tratamento consiste principalmente em quimioterapia. Apesar dos avanços no tratamento, cerca de 20% dos pacientes apresentam recaída da doença e/ou óbito indicando a necessidade de te

3. Análise da função dos microRNAs na regulação da expressão de DNMT3B/Dnmt3b e MECP2/Mecp2 / Analysis of microRNAs function in the regulation of DNMT3B/Dnmt3b and MECP2/Mecp2 gene expression
A metilação do DNA em mamíferos é uma importante modificação epigenética, sendo essencial no silenciamento de DNAs repetitivos, de regiões que sofrem imprinting genômico e no estabelecimento do cromossomo X inativo em fêmeas. Existem 5 tipos de DNA Metiltransferases, tendo a DNMT3B um importante papel na metilação de novo. A MeCP2, por sua vez, �

4. Multi-target siRNA based on DNMT3A/B homologous conserved region influences cell cycle and apoptosis of human prostate cancer cell line TSU-PR1
Abnormal genome hypermethylation participates in the tumorigenesis and development of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer cells highly express DNA methyltransferase 3 (DMNT3) family genes, essential for maintaining genome methylation. In the present study, multi-target siRNA, based on the homologous region of the DNMT3 family, was designed for the in vitro inve

5. Associação entre polimorfismos em genes envolvidos no metabolismo do folato e risco materno para a síndrome de Down.
A síndrome de Down (SD) é a cromossomopatia humana mais frequente e, na maioria dos casos (cerca de 90%), é caracterizada pela trissomia livre do cromossomo 21, resultante de falhas na segregação cromossômica durante a meiose materna. Estudos sugerem que a ocorrência da SD independente da idade materna está relacionada à hipometilação do DNA centr

6. Expressão imunoistoquímica das enzimas DNA metiltransferases 1, 3A e 3B em leucoplasias e carcinomas de células escamosas bucais
Objetivos: Neste estudo foi investigada a expressão das enzimas DNA metiltransferases (DNMTs) 1, 3a e 3b em carcinomas escamocelulares (CEC) e leucoplasias bucais, relacionando-a com a graduação histopatológica e presença de displasia epitelial, respectivamente, bem como com os parâmetros clínicos dos pacientes. Metodologia: A técnica de imunoistoqu�

7. Análise funcional dos genes Xist e DNMT1 na manutenção do processo de inativação do cromossomo X humano através do silenciamento gênico por RNAi / Functional analysis of XIST and DNMT1 genes in the maintenance of X chromosome inactivation process in human through gene silencing by RNAi
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is the phenomenon through which one of the X chromosomes in female mammals is silenced to achieve dosage compensation related to males. It involves the expression of XIST gene exclusively from the inactive X, and the association of its RNA in cis in this chromosome. This leads to a series of epigenetic modifications in the chr

8. Mecanismos associados à perda de expressão do gene de galectina-3 em um modelo de progressão de melanoma murino / Mechanisms associated to the loss of galectin-3 gene expression in a model of murine melanoma progression
Galectin-3 is a b-galactoside-binding animal lectin, shown to be involved in tumor progression and metastasis. Galectin-3 expression has been found altered along tumor progression of different tumors. In some types of cancers such as thyroid carcinoma and bladder carcinoma, galectin-3 expression has been found increased, whereas in tumors such as breast carc

9. Establishment and Maintenance of Genomic Methylation Patterns in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells by Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b
We have previously shown that the DNA methyltransferases Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b carry out de novo methylation of the mouse genome during early postimplantation development and of maternally imprinted genes in the oocyte. In the present study, we demonstrate that Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b are also essential for the stable inheritance, or “maintenance,” of DNA methylat

10. DNA Methyltransferase 3b Regulates Nerve Growth Factor-Induced Differentiation of PC12 Cells by Recruiting Histone Deacetylase 2
To elucidate the role of epigenetic reprogramming in cell- or tissue-specific differentiation, we explored the role of DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts) in the nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced differentiation of PC12 (pheochromocytoma) cells into neuronal cells. The mRNA and protein levels of de novo methyltransferase Dnmt3b increased, whereas those of Dnmt3a

11. In Vivo Activity of Murine De Novo Methyltransferases, Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b
The putative de novo methyltransferases, Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b, were reported to have weak methyltransferase activity in methylating the 3′ long terminal repeat of Moloney murine leukemia virus in vitro. The activity of these enzymes was evaluated in vivo, using a stable episomal system that employs plasmids as targets for DNA methylation in human cells. De no

12. The PWWP Domain of Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b Is Required for Directing DNA Methylation to the Major Satellite Repeats at Pericentric Heterochromatin
Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b are responsible for the establishment of DNA methylation patterns during development. These proteins contain, in addition to a C-terminal catalytic domain, a unique N-terminal regulatory region that harbors conserved domains, including a PWWP domain. The PWWP domain, characterized by the presence of a highly conserved proline-tryptophan-try
