In order to identify new molecular biomarkers that could improve clinical management and outcomes, we have used RNA-seq to profile the Whole Transcriptome of three ependymoma samples and one normal control brain tissue, producing a total of 2.5 Gigabases of sequencing data. Different protein-coding gene databases were interrogated for known annotated genes to calculate RPKM and Fold Changes (FGs) for each clustered gene. Using this approach, we were able to identify Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) in ependymomas. KEGG pathways and Gene Ontology (GO) categories enriched in the DEGs were analyzed using Enrichr, and protein interaction networks were then built using MetaCore™. Thirty differentially expressed protein-coding genes associated with neurogenesis were identified by TaqMan Real-Time PCR, 17 of these showing statistically significant differential expression. Based on these results, we have identified <em>IGF-2</em> as highly over-expressed in ependymomas and that this is due to loss of DNA methylation in its promoter region. In conclusion, we believe that some of these genes, specially <em>IGF-2</em>, may be of clinical importance, opening new avenues for disease management and new therapies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100187,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnology Research and Innovation","volume":"3 2","pages":"Pages 252-264"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.biori.2019.08.002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74280403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clearly, achieving an effective patent protection for proteins and genetic sequences is a real challenge for an Intellectual Property manager, considering the unpredictability of biological sciences and the diversity in current patent law and patent office guidance in each territory. This paper seeks to study the Brazilian patent office procedures about genus claims for biological sequences while comparing them with two other national/regional offices. To achieve this result, we initially present the concepts, followed by the current requirements and the barriers to obtain genus claims for biological sequences in the legal framework and patent office prosecution of Brazil, the European Union, and the United States. Subsequently, we study the impacts of these regulations in the scope of claim protection in each territory. This is done by comparing patent documents with the same priority granted in each of these offices in order to analyze the extension of the owner's rights for biological sequences. Understanding the logic that supports the examination procedures in the three studied offices will be important to subsidize the legal protection for gene-based inventions.
