Improved ChIP Sequencing for H3K27ac Profiling and Super-Enhancer Analysis Assisted by Fluorescence-Activated Sorting of Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissues by Nenggang Jiang, Zhihao Wen, Huan Tao, Hongyan Liao

“…Abstract Archived clinical formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE) is valuable for the study of tumor epigenetics. Although protocol of chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with next generation sequencing (NGS) (ChIP-seq) using FFPE samples has been established, removal of interference signals from non-target cell components in the samples is still needed. …”

“…Fabp7 decreases the transcription of ferroptosis-inducing genes like Lpcat3 and increases the transcription of ferroptosis-protective genes such as Bmal1 through epigenetic reprogramming. Lipidomic profiling revealed that Fabp7 increases triglycerides and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), which impede lipid peroxidation and ROS generation. …”

Hypoxia-induced CTCF mediates alternative splicing via coupling chromatin looping and RNA Pol II pause to promote EMT in breast cancer by Parik Kakani, Shruti Ganesh Dhamdhere, Deepak Pant, Rushikesh Joshi, Sachin Mishra, Anchala Pandey, Dimple Notani, Sanjeev Shukla

“…Summary: Hypoxia influences the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) through the remodeling of the chromatin structure, epigenetics, and alternative splicing. Hypoxia drives CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) induction through hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF1α), which promotes EMT, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”
