Article Synopsis
  • Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in solid organ transplant recipients significantly raises the chances of complications such as viremia (viral presence in blood), graft failure, and even death.
  • Research shows that solid organ transplant recipients who received organs from CMV-positive donors are at a higher risk of viremia compared to those who received organs from CMV-negative donors.
  • A study profiling DNA methylation in transplant candidates found that CMV-positive recipients exhibit an altered immune epigenome, leading to potential biomarkers, like the CMV episcore, which could help predict viremia risk in these patients post-transplant.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the role of TERT, a subunit of telomerase, in high-grade cervical cancer, highlighting its activation linked to hypomethylation as a potential biomarker for disease progression.
  • Researchers analyzed 529 CpG sites in the TERT promoter region and related areas, discovering specific sites whose methylation patterns are significantly associated with genetic variants that increase cervical cancer risk.
  • Findings suggest that certain genetic variants are linked to lower levels of TERT and CLPTM1L mRNA, indicating a protective effect against cervical cancer, while HPV infection appears to increase levels of these genes.

Sexually dimorphic DNA methylation and gene expression patterns in human first trimester placenta.

Biol Sex Differ

August 2024

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, 8635 West 3rd Street, Suite 160, Los Angeles, CA, 90048, USA.

Background: Fetal sex and placental development impact pregnancy outcomes and fetal-maternal health, but the critical timepoint of placenta establishment in first trimester is understudied in human pregnancies.

Methods: Pregnant subjects were recruited in late first trimester (weeks 10-14) at time of chorionic villus sampling, a prenatal diagnostic test. Leftover placenta tissue was collected and stored until birth outcomes were known, then DNA and RNA were isolated from singleton, normal karyotype pregnancies resulting in live births.
