Epigenetics: from Inheritance to Cancer Maxwell Lee National Cancer Institute Center for Cancer Research Laboratory of Population Genetics April 21, 2011

Definitions of Epigenetic and Epigenetics Epigenetic is related to epigenesis---The theory that an individual is developed by successive differentiation of an egg rather than by a simple enlarging of a preformed entity. Epigenetics = epigenesis + genetics---developmental processes that initiated by genotype but don’t involve changes in genetic materials. By Conrad Waddington

Dualism of Genetic and Epigenetic Inheritance systems Genetics---Genetic inheritance vs. mutation, which operate on individuals to change DNA sequences in the spaces of evolution, population, and pedigree. Epigenetics---Cellular memory vs. plasticity, which operate on cells to change epigenetic states in the spaces of development, differentiation, and physiology.

Definitions of Epigenetic and Epigenetics Epigenetic is related to epigenesis---the theory that an individual is developed by successive differentiation of an egg rather than by a simple enlarging of a preformed entity. Epigenetics = epigenesis + genetics---developmental processes that initiated by genotype but don’t involve changes in genetic materials. By Conrad Waddington Epigenetics---the study of mitotically and/or meiotically heritable changes in gene function that can not be explained by changes in DNA sequences. Biochemical basis of epigenetics---DNA methylation and chromatin structure/modifications. Function of epigenetics---gene expression regulation. Modern Definition of Epigenetics

Genomic Imprinting Gynogenetic lethal Androgenetic lethal normal

Igf2 Phenotype is Paternally Transmitted

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) The cardinal features of this disorder are exomphalos, macroglossia, and gigantism in the neonate. Patients have enlarged tongue, together with omphalocele or other umbilical abnormalities. Visceromegaly, adrenocortical cytomegaly, and dysplasia of the renal medulla are conspicuous features. Adrenal carcinoma, nephroblastoma, hepatoblastoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma occur with increased frequency. BWS is caused by mutation in P57KIP2 and LOI of LIT1 and IGF2.

Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) Adrenal carcinoma, nephroblastoma, hepatoblastoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma.
