  • This epigenetics sketch was created by Armando Hasudungan, in collaboration with Professor Susan Clark and Dr Kate Patterson at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research. It has been created for a broad, non-expert audience to highlight key messages about the role epigenetics plays in biological processes like development and diseases such as cancer. Find out more: www.garvan.org...
    In normal, healthy cells, two epigenetic processes - DNA methylation and DNA de-methylation - are maintained in a delicate balance. This balance is disrupted in cancer. Gene promoter regions that are typically unmethylated in healthy cells commonly become highly methylated in cancer and the associated gene is silenced. In comparison, the non-genic regions of DNA become de-methylated in cancer often leading to DNA instability. This disorganized DNA methylation pattern means that the cancer DNA becomes de-arranged and genes responsible for stopping cancer growth, also called tumour suppressor genes, are switched off, allowing cancers to grow unchecked.

    Excellent explanation: concise, jargon-limited, and straight to the point. We need more 3-5 minute videos explaining complicated processes to the public at large.
    Thanks again!

    So presumably hyper-methylation can deactivate a lot of DNA repair genes too.

    Highly impressed with this vedioclip and for the first time through your deliberation a professor has understood this complex process. Thank you very much indeed. Would love to learn from you more and more Sir! Regards

    please correct me any part of the statements if they are wrong.
    I understood that:
    1) promoter DNA methylation is a NORMAL action in response to the environment/epigenetics and ultimately results in gene silencing.
    2) CpG site(s) methylation (another NORMAL nature of genome) ultimately creates different cell types and furthers their division (via unique methylation patterns per cell type, across the genome of cell types).
    3) It is UNCOMMON for PROMOTER CpG islands to be methylated, because they (promoter regions) have important regulatory elements that control gene transcription (and shouldn't be 'messed' with).... and offset balance of promoter dna methylation and CpG island methylation.....
    4) So, in cancer cells we not only have the UNCOMMONality of the methylation of DNA PROMOTER CpG islands, but they are HYPERMETHYLATED. This means
    the normal inactivation for silencing of the gene for suppressing tumors is otherwise, due to hypermethylation, now allowed to be activated (so NO silencing of gene for suppressing tumors) and thus, allowed to differentiate/divide/aka behave like a tumor and go crazy!.......
    Let me know.
    Thanks!

    Naive question: Could manipulation of the methylation on DNA cause a generation of a stem cell. Is a stem cell just one that has yet to undergo any methylation (expressing all genes)?

    Very cool, but where does these DNMT comes from? What is regulating DNMT for us to take human shape?

    • @tievoli83
      @tievoli83 4 года назад +2

      DNMT1o is synthesized and stored in the cytoplasm of the oocyte and translocated to the cell nucleus during early embryonic development, while the somatic DNMT1 is always found in the nucleus of somatic tissue.

    I have experienced very severe neurological disorders with the use of PPIs.
    I have the characteristics under methylation _ I learned this with my own research after the disorder_
    I can't get rid of paresthesias, especially pins and needles.
    What can you suggest me about this?

    Very good, most of it I got it, but I didn't understand the flip part of CpG. If DNMT3a and DNMT3b already methylated, is that cause the flip and later when it obtains methyl from SAM it comes back?
