Suarez-Kelly L, Akagi K, Reeser J, Samorodnitsky E, Reeder M, Smith A, et al.
Cold Spring Harb Mol Case Stud . 2018 Feb; 4(2). PMID: 29449315
Metaplastic breast carcinoma (MBC) is rare and has a poor prognosis. Here we describe genetic analysis of a 41-yr-old female patient with MBC and neurofibromatosis type I (NF1). She initially...

Warburton A, Redmond C, Dooley K, Fu H, Gillison M, Akagi K, et al.
PLoS Genet . 2018 Jan; 14(1):e1007179. PMID: 29364907
Integration of human papillomavirus (HPV) genomes into cellular chromatin is common in HPV-associated cancers. Integration is random, and each site is unique depending on how and where the virus integrates....

El Refaey M, Xu L, Gao Y, Canan B, Adesanya T, Warner S, et al.
Circ Res . 2017 Aug; 121(8):923-929. PMID: 28790199
Rationale: Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a severe inherited form of muscular dystrophy caused by mutations in the reading frame of the dystrophin gene disrupting its protein expression. Dystrophic cardiomyopathy is...

Kannan M, Li J, Fritz S, Husarek K, Sanford J, Sullivan T, et al.
Mob DNA . 2017 May; 8:8. PMID: 28491150
Background: The ongoing mobilization of mammalian transposable elements (TEs) contributes to natural genetic variation. To survey the epigenetic control and expression of reporter genes inserted by L1 retrotransposition in diverse...

Starrett G, Marcelus C, Cantalupo P, Katz J, Cheng J, Akagi K, et al.
mBio . 2017 Jan; 8(1). PMID: 28049147
Importance: A variety of mutagenic processes that shape the evolution of tumors are critical determinants of disease outcome. Here, we sequenced the entire genome of virus-positive and virus-negative primary Merkel...

Tomsic J, He H, Akagi K, Liyanarachchi S, Pan Q, Bertani B, et al.
Sci Rep . 2015 Jul; 5:10566. PMID: 26135620
Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) displays strong but so far largely uncharacterized heritability. Here we studied genetic predisposition in a family with six affected individuals. We genotyped all available family members...

He H, Li W, Liyanarachchi S, Srinivas M, Wang Y, Akagi K, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2015 Apr; 112(19):6128-33. PMID: 25918370
The [A] allele of SNP rs965513 in 9q22 has been consistently shown to be highly associated with increased papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) risk with an odds ratio of ∼1.8 as...

Schliehe C, Flynn E, Vilagos B, Richson U, Swaminanthan S, Bosnjak B, et al.
Nat Immunol . 2014 Nov; 16(1):67-74. PMID: 25419628
Immune responses are tightly regulated to ensure efficient pathogen clearance while avoiding tissue damage. Here we report that Setdb2 was the only protein lysine methyltransferase induced during infection with influenza...

Li J, Kannan M, Trivett A, Liao H, Wu X, Akagi K, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2014 Feb; 42(7):4546-62. PMID: 24493738
Between 6 and 30% of human and mouse transcripts are initiated from transposable elements. However, the promoters driving such transcriptional activity are mostly unknown. We experimentally characterized an antisense (AS)...

Akagi K, Li J, Broutian T, Padilla-Nash H, Xiao W, Jiang B, et al.
Genome Res . 2013 Nov; 24(2):185-99. PMID: 24201445
Genomic instability is a hallmark of human cancers, including the 5% caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Here we report a striking association between HPV integration and adjacent host genomic structural...
