Alternative splicing in multiple sclerosis and other autoimmune diseases.
Evsyukova, Irina; Somarelli, Jason A; Gregory, Simon G; Garcia-Blanco, Mariano A (RNA Biol, 2010-07)Alternative splicing is a general mechanism for regulating gene expression that affects the RNA products of more than 90% of human genes. Not surprisingly, alternative splicing is observed among gene products of metazoan ... -

Patierno, Brendon M; Foo, Wen-Chi; Allen, Tyler; Somarelli, Jason A; Ware, Kathryn E; Gupta, Santosh; Wise, Sandra; ... (24 authors) (Prostate cancer and prostatic diseases, 2021-10-13)<h4>Background</h4>Prostate cancer is a clinically and molecularly heterogeneous disease, with highest incidence and mortality among men of African ancestry. To date, prostate cancer patient-derived xenograft (PCPDX) models ... -
Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition in Sarcomas Is Controlled by the Combinatorial Expression of MicroRNA 200s and GRHL2.
Somarelli, Jason A; Shetler, Samantha; Jolly, Mohit K; Wang, Xueyang; Bartholf Dewitt, Suzanne; Hish, Alexander J; Gilja, Shivee; ... (12 authors) (Mol Cell Biol, 2016-10-01)Phenotypic plasticity involves a process in which cells transiently acquire phenotypic traits of another lineage.

Snail promotes resistance to enzalutamide through regulation of androgen receptor activity in prostate cancer.
Ware, Kathryn E; Somarelli, Jason A; Schaeffer, Daneen; Li, Jing; Zhang, Tian; Park, Sally; Patierno, Steven R; ... (11 authors) (Oncotarget, 2016-08-02)Treatment with androgen-targeted therapies can induce upregulation of epithelial plasticity pathways. Epithelial plasticity is known to be important for metastatic dissemination and therapeutic resistance. The goal of this ...
