1	18068529	To determine ancestral allele in possible cancer-associated polymorphisms, DNA samples from 10 chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) were sequenced for alleles corresponding to 17 polymorphisms: 8 short tandem repeats [IL1RN (alias IL-1RA) variable number tandem repeat (VNTR); TYMS (previously TS) VNTR; AR CAG repeat; dinucleotide repeats of UGT1A1, IGF1, IFNG (alias IFN-gamma), ESR1 (alias ER-alpha), and EGFR] and 9 single nucleotide polymorphisms (MMP1-1607 1G/2G, MMP3-1171 5A/6A, OGG1 Ser326Cys, ALDH2 Gly487Lys, TP53 Arg72Pro, ABCG2 Gln141Lys, MGMT Leu84Phe, SOD2 Ala-9Val, and MTHFR Ala222Val).
2	18068529	Dinucleotide repeat polymorphisms of IGF1, IFNG, ESR1, and EGFR were shared by chimpanzees, but the length of repeats tended to be longer in humans than in chimpanzees.
3	18068529	Thus, all of the possible cancer-associated polymorphisms tested have human-specific alleles, and the ancestral allele is lost in three polymorphisms (IL1RN VNTR, UGT1A1 CA repeat, and MMP3-1171 5A/6A), suggesting a possible involvement of human-specific alleles in cancer susceptibility.
4	22584669	Cytokines induce tight junction disassembly in airway cells via an EGFR-dependent MAPK/ERK1/2-pathway.
5	22584669	To evaluate in vitro whether pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of respiratory disorders could alter TJ organization and epithelial barrier integrity, and to characterize the signal transduction pathway involved Calu-3 airway epithelial cells were exposed to TNF-a, IL-4 and IFN-g to assess changes in: (a) TJ assembly, that is, occludin and zonula occludens (ZO)-1 expression and localization, evaluated by confocal microscopy; (b) apoptotic activity, quantified using terminal transferase deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling staining; (c) epithelial barrier integrity, detected as transmembrane electrical resistance and expressed as G(T) values; (d) epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-dependent mitogenactivated protein (MAP) kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK)1/2 phosphorylation, assessed by western blotting.
6	22584669	The degree ZO-1 and occludin colocalization was 62±2% in control cultures and significantly decreased in the presence of TNF-a (47±3%), IL-4 (43±1%) and INF-g (35±3%).
7	22584669	G(T) values were, respectively, 1.030±0.0, 1.300±0.04, 1.260±0.020 and 2.220±0.015 (mS/cm²)1000 in control cultures and in those exposed to TNF-a, IFN-g and IL-4.
8	22584669	The involvement of EGFR-dependent MAPK/ERK1/2 signaling pathway in cytokine-induced damage was demonstrated by a significant increase in threonine/tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK1/2, already detectable after 5 min incubation.
9	22584669	All these cytokine-induced changes were markedly prevented when Calu-3 cells were cultured in the presence of an EGFR inhibitor (AG1478, 1 μM) or a MAP kinase inhibitor (U0126, 25 μM).
10	22584669	In conclusion, cytokine-induced epithelial injury includes TJ disassembly and epithelial barrier permeability alteration and involves the EGFR-dependent MAPK/ERK1/2 signaling pathway.
