Transient promoter interactions modulate developmental gene activation.

Mol Cell

December 2024

Mechanisms of Genome Control, German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), Im Neuenheimer Feld 581, Heidelberg, Germany. Electronic address:

Transcriptional induction coincides with the formation of various chromatin topologies. Strong evidence supports that gene activation is accompanied by a general increase in promoter-enhancer interactions. However, it remains unclear how these topological changes are coordinated across time and space during transcriptional activation.

DNA Methylation Signatures Correlate with Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Metastatic Melanoma.

Target Oncol

March 2024

Department of Medicine I, Division of Oncology, Christian Doppler Laboratory for Personalized Immunotherapy, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18-20, 1090, Vienna, Austria.

Background: DNA methylation profiles have emerged as potential predictors of therapeutic response in various solid tumors.

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the DNA methylation profiles of patients with stage IV metastatic melanoma undergoing first-line immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment and evaluate their correlation with a radiological response according to immune-related Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (iRECIST).

Methods: A total of 81 tissue samples from 71 patients with metastatic melanoma (27 female, 44 male) were included in this study.

Thoroughly assessing the owners and distribution of stranded assets in a 2 °C scenario is essential to anticipate climate policy resistance. We employ novel data to analyze owners and incidence of asset stranding in the power sector globally. We show that Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the US are highly exposed to stranded assets, especially coal plants.
