HMGA1 drives stem cell, inflammatory pathway, and cell cycle progression genes during lymphoid tumorigenesisAndrew Schuldenfrei
Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
BMC Genomics 12:549. 2011..To define the HMGA1 transcriptome, we analyzed gene expression profiles in lymphoid cells from HMGA1a transgenic mice at different stages in tumorigenesis...
Induction of fetal hemoglobin synthesis in children with sickle cell anemia on low-dose oral sodium phenylbutyrate therapyLinda M S Resar

The high mobility group A1 gene: transforming inflammatory signals into cancer?Linda M S Resar
The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205 2109, USA
Cancer Res 70:436-9. 2010..Further elucidation of HMGA1 function in transformation promises to have a major impact on our war on cancer...
Concentrations of B vitamins and homocysteine in children with sickle cell anemiaJodi B Segal
Department of Medicine and Pediatrics, The Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology, and Clinical Research, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Medical Institutions, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
South Med J 97:149-55. 2004..We aimed to test whether children with sickle cell anemia have elevated concentrations of serum homocysteine with diminished levels of folate or B vitamins from accelerated blood cell turnover...
Pulsed-dosing with oral sodium phenylbutyrate increases hemoglobin F in a patient with sickle cell anemiaPatrick Hines
Hematology Division, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Pediatr Blood Cancer 50:357-9. 2008..This patient developed a modest, but sustained elevation in HbF over the course of therapy without side effects. Although larger studies are needed, this case demonstrates that pulsed-dosing with OSPB enhances HbF synthesis...
HMG-I/Y in human breast cancer cell linesChristine E Dolde
Department of Pediatrics, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Breast Cancer Res Treat 71:181-91. 2002....
The high-mobility group A1 gene up-regulates cyclooxygenase 2 expression in uterine tumorigenesisAbeba Tesfaye
Hematology Division, Department of Medicine, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA
Cancer Res 67:3998-4004. 2007..Although a larger study is needed to confirm these results, HMGA1a may be a useful marker for aggressive human uterine cancers...
The high-mobility group A1a/signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 axis: an achilles heel for hematopoietic malignancies?Joelle Hillion
Departments of Medicine, Hematology Division, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA
Cancer Res 68:10121-7. 2008..Our results show that the HMGA1a-STAT3 axis is a potential Achilles heel that could be exploited therapeutically in hematopoietic and other malignancies overexpressing HMGA1a...
Upregulation of MMP-2 by HMGA1 promotes transformation in undifferentiated, large-cell lung cancerJoelle Hillion
Hematology Division, Department of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Mol Cancer Res 7:1803-12. 2009..Our findings suggest an important role for MMP-2 in transformation mediated by HMGA1 in large-cell, undifferentiated lung carcinoma and support the development of strategies to target this pathway in selected tumors...
High mobility group protein HMGI(Y) enhances tumor cell growth, invasion, and matrix metalloproteinase-2 expression in prostate cancer cellsNatsuki Takaha
Department of Urology, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Prostate 60:160-7. 2004..The high mobility group protein HMGI(Y) has oncogenic properties and correlates with an aggressive phenotype in prostate cancer. The molecular mechanisms involved in transformation associated with HMGI(Y) overexpression remain unknown...
Cyclooxygenase inhibitors block uterine tumorigenesis in HMGA1a transgenic mice and human xenograftsFrancescopaolo Di Cello
Hematology Division, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Mol Cancer Ther 7:2090-5. 2008..Importantly, these drugs have lower toxicity than chemotherapeutic agents used to treat advanced-stage uterine cancers...
HMGA1 correlates with advanced tumor grade and decreased survival in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomaAlexandra C Hristov
Department of Pathology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Mod Pathol 23:98-104. 2010..These results suggest that HMGA1 promotes tumor progression in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and could be a useful biomarker and rational therapeutic target in advanced disease...
The HMG-I oncogene causes highly penetrant, aggressive lymphoid malignancy in transgenic mice and is overexpressed in human leukemiaYi Xu
Hematology Division, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA
Cancer Res 64:3371-5. 2004..Our results show that HMG-I functions as an oncogene and suggest that it contributes to the pathogenesis of leukemia and other cancers with increased HMG-I expression...
HMGA2 participates in transformation in human lung cancerFrancescopaolo Di Cello
Hematology Division, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA
Mol Cancer Res 6:743-50. 2008..Although additional studies with animal models are needed, these findings suggest that targeting HMGA2 could be therapeutically beneficial in lung cancer and other cancers characterized by increased HMGA2 expression...
Research Grants
- HMG-1/Y AND NEOPLASTIC TRANSFORMATIONLinda Resar; Fiscal Year: 2002..Insight gained from these studies should advance our understanding of malignancies associated with increased c-myc and or HMG-I/Y expression and may lead to new treatment strategies. ..
- Mechanisms of Neoplastic Transformation by HMG-I/YLinda Resar; Fiscal Year: 2006..This proposal is significant because the results will enhance our understanding of human malignancies with increased HMG-I/Y proteins and may lead to new treatment strategies. ..
- The Role of HMG-I/Y in Uterine CancerLinda Resar; Fiscal Year: 2007..There is no effective therapy for this cancer after it has spread outside the uterus. Thus, research is urgently needed to determine how these cancers develop in order to design better therapies. ..
