Abstract
Angiosarcomas (AS) is a rare soft tissue sarcomas with poor treatment options and a dismal prognosis. The abnormal DNA methylation pattern has been determined as the certain clinical relevance with different angiosarcoma subtypes. However, the profound mechanism is not clear. In present study, we studied thirty-six AS with or without chronic lymphedema, and reported that DNA damage was an important factor causing DNA methylation abnormality. Furthermore, we determined that the impaired Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway contributed to severe DNA damage in AS with chronic lymphedema. We also observed that the activated FANCD2 could facilitate DNMT1 recruitment on genomic DNA. Our study uncovers a novel regulatory mechanism of FA pathway on DNA methylation, and is a benefit to advanced understanding the pathogenesis of AS, as well as providing the potential therapeutic targets for AS treatment.
期刊介绍：
Human Cell is the official English-language journal of the Japan Human Cell Society. The journal serves as a forum for international research on all aspects of the human cell, encompassing not only cell biology but also pathology, cytology, and oncology, including clinical oncology. Embryonic stem cells derived from animals, regenerative medicine using animal cells, and experimental animal models with implications for human diseases are covered as well.
Submissions in any of the following categories will be considered: Research Articles, Cell Lines, Rapid Communications, Reviews, and Letters to the Editor. A brief clinical case report focusing on cellular responses to pathological insults in human studies may also be submitted as a Letter to the Editor in a concise and short format.
Not only basic scientists but also gynecologists, oncologists, and other clinical scientists are welcome to submit work expressing new ideas or research using human cells.
