Genome-wide analysis of estrogen receptor binding sites

…, EK Keeton, KC Fertuck, GF Hall, Q Wang… - Nature …, 2006 - nature.com
The estrogen receptor is the master transcriptional regulator of breast cancer phenotype and
the archetype of a molecular therapeutic target. We mapped all estrogen receptor and RNA …

[HTML][HTML] Androgen receptor regulates a distinct transcription program in androgen-independent prostate cancer

Q Wang, W Li, Y Zhang, X Yuan, K Xu, J Yu, Z Chen… - Cell, 2009 - cell.com
The evolution of prostate cancer from an androgen-dependent state to one that is androgen-independent
marks its lethal progression. The androgen receptor (AR) is essential in both, …

[HTML][HTML] FoxA1 translates epigenetic signatures into enhancer-driven lineage-specific transcription

M Lupien, J Eeckhoute, CA Meyer, Q Wang, Y Zhang… - Cell, 2008 - cell.com
Complex organisms require tissue-specific transcriptional programs, yet little is known about
how these are established. The transcription factor FoxA1 is thought to contribute to gene …

Shaping chromatin states in prostate cancer by pioneer transcription factors

W Hankey, Z Chen, Q Wang - Cancer research, 2020 - AACR
The androgen receptor (AR) is a critical therapeutic target in prostate cancer that responds
to antagonists in primary disease, but inevitably becomes reactivated, signaling onset of the …

[PDF][PDF] A hierarchical network of transcription factors governs androgen receptor-dependent prostate cancer growth

Q Wang, W Li, XS Liu, JS Carroll, OA Jänne, EK Keeton… - Molecular cell, 2007 - cell.com
Androgen receptor (AR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that plays a key role in
prostate cancer. Little is known about the nature of AR cis-regulatory sites in the human …

[PDF][PDF] Spatial and temporal recruitment of androgen receptor and its coactivators involves chromosomal looping and polymerase tracking

Q Wang, JS Carroll, M Brown - Molecular cell, 2005 - cell.com
Androgen receptor (AR) plays a critical role in the development and progression of prostate
cancer, where it is a key therapeutic target. Here we report that, in contrast to estrogen …

Nucleosome dynamics define transcriptional enhancers

HH He, CA Meyer, H Shin, ST Bailey, G Wei, Q Wang… - Nature …, 2010 - nature.com
Chromatin plays a central role in eukaryotic gene regulation. We performed genome-wide
mapping of epigenetically marked nucleosomes to determine their position both near …

Histone modifications and chromatin organization in prostate cancer

Z Chen, L Wang, Q Wang, W Li - Epigenomics, 2010 - Future Medicine
Epigenetic mechanisms, including histone modifications, nucleosomal remodeling and
chromosomal looping, contribute to the onset and progression of prostate cancer. Recent …

[HTML][HTML] Alternative polyadenylation of mRNA and its role in cancer

F Yuan, W Hankey, EJ Wagner, W Li, Q Wang - Genes & Diseases, 2021 - Elsevier
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a molecular process that generates diversity at the 3′
end of RNA polymerase II transcripts from over 60% of human genes. APA is derived from …

Broad H3K4me3 is associated with increased transcription elongation and enhancer activity at tumor-suppressor genes

…, B Rodriguez, Y Xi, Z Xia, X Chen, X Shi, Q Wang… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
Tumor suppressors are mostly defined by inactivating mutations in tumors, yet little is known
about their epigenetic features in normal cells. Through integrative analysis of 1,134 …
