Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Impairment of stability in chromosomal structure facilitates abnormal segregation of chromosome, increasing the risk of carcinogenesis. Segregation is managed by appropriate methylation, leading to heterochromatin structure at centromere. Insufficient methylation such as demethylation fails to heterochromatin due to overexpression of satellite alpha transcript (SatA), which is the non-coding RNA transcribed from satellite alpha sequences at centromere. We showed SatA expression was increased in colorectal cancer, in which satellite sequences were demethylated, resulting in chromosomal instability. We verified this machinery in vitro. The lentiviral vector expressing human SatA was constructed and transduced in cultured cells. Copy number alterations were observed at several chromosomes in transduced cells but not in mock cells. Alterations were frequently seen at chromosome 8q and 20q, which is consistent with the results in clinical specimens.
